Summary

HOLDINGS: [1]-The trial court correctly concluded that the sellers lacked antitrust standing under 15 U.S.C.S. § 18 because the sellers were not participants in the market for healthcare risk adjustment services, they did not provide services in that market, and they were not consumers in that market. Also, they alleged no injury as shareholders of the company.
