Law School Admission Council moves to dismiss amended US antitrust claims
( May 29, 2026, 23:00 GMT | Official Statement) -- MLex Summary: The Law School Admission Council has moved to dismiss students' amended US antitrust claims over alleged price-fixing on processing fees to law school applications, saying the court had correctly dismissed plaintiff's first complaint when it found the complaint had failed to allege competitive harm across both sides of the law school application platform market or to allege LSAC possessed monopoly power.
