( August 11, 2026, 03:11 GMT | Official Statement) -- MLex Summary: Plaintiff crabbers filed an opposition to Da Yang's motion to dismiss their US price-fixing claims over Dungeness crab, saying that their sixth amended complaint has fixed shortcomings with the allegations previously identified by a California federal court. The sixth amended complaint alleges that Da Yang's Kyle Horgan retaliated against an independent buyer for refusing to accept a price set by the defendants' cartel, and that Da Yang's principal pricing representatives repeatedly solicited the prevailing ex vessel price from competitors, received answers, and then moved Da Yang's own prices to match, the filing in the Northern District of California said. Da Yang's motion to dismiss "does not seriously grapple" with allegations included in the amended complaint, and its motion should be denied, the crabbers said.See attached document....
