Wellmark, Inc. v. Iowa District Court for Polk County
Annotate this CaseIn this ongoing civil litigation, the Supreme Court decided two prior appeals, referred to as Mueller I and Mueller II. After procedendo issued in Mueller II, Plaintiffs were successful in persuading the district court to proceed with an antitrust claim they had previously stipulated was not included in their fourth amended petition. Defendant filed a petition for a writ of certiorari. The Supreme Court sustained the writ of certiorari, holding that the district court’s summary judgment in Mueller II, and the Court’s subsequent decision affirming that judgment without any remand, ended this civil action such that a rule-of-reason claim against Defendant can only be pursued in a separate lawsuit.
