LEGAL PRACTICE: ANTI-COMPETITIVE PRACTICES - PROCEDURES - COMPENSATION - PASSING ON DEFENCE
Private enforcement of antitrust law in France (Sep. 2017 – Feb. 2018)
The decisions commented in this article confirm the main features of the private enforcement of antitrust law in France. It is still a varied litigation between businesses.
