Minneapolis, MN---July 23, 2009--- Antitrust enforcement is a very hot topic! The U.S. Department of Justice Antitrust Division and Federal Trade Commission are ramping up their efforts to aggressively pursue antitrust cases. Congress is, at the same time, seeking legislation that would repeal the Supreme Court's recent decision in Leegin eliminating the per se rule against minimum resale price maintenance.

The Society of Corporate Compliance and Ethics announced today it will hold two critical educational sessions to help companies understand what they need to do in this fast-evolving arena.

Two experienced practitioners, former Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General, Antitrust Division, U.S. Department of Justice David L.
