Status

Overruled
A reviewed court has overruled this case. United Phosphorus, Ltd. v.

Agrium Inc.; the confirmed treatment is listed below. All 126 flagged citations have been read.
More on how this was screened

Later opinions generally continued to apply United Phosphorus's unaffected Rule 12(b)(1) framework while reporting Minn-Chem's treatment in history parentheticals; those history reports are not additional treatments.

Every treatment on this page is written from the citing opinion itself, with a verbatim quote, never copied from a commercial citator. A citation flagged by our screen but not shown here was read and found not to weaken this case.

126 citations to United Phosphorus, Ltd. v. Angus Chemical Company sat close to treatment language and were flagged for reading, and all of them have been read. Citations that did not sit near treatment language were not flagged and were not read one by one, so a court that weakened this case without using any of that language would not appear here.

Treatments

Overruled

  • The en banc Seventh Circuit held that the FTAIA's criteria concern the merits of an antitrust claim rather than subject-matter jurisdiction and expressly overruled United Phosphorus's contrary holding.

    Minn-Chem, Inc. v. Agrium Inc. · Seventh Circuit (en banc) · filed

    We hold first that the FTAIA’s criteria relate to the merits of a claim, and not to the subject-matter jurisdiction of the court. We therefore overrule our earlier en banc deci- sion in United Phosphorus, Ltd. v. Angus Chem. Co., 322 F.3d 942 (7th Cir. 2003).
