Simpson Thacher Wins “Litigation of the Year - Cartel Defense” Award

04.30.15
The Firm recently won the “Litigation of the Year – Cartel Defense” award from Global Competition Review for its successful representation of HannStar Display in the Motorola Mobility v. AU Optronics case, a long-running antitrust litigation involving alleged price-fixing by the world’s largest liquid crystal display, or LCD, manufacturers. Just weeks before trial was set to begin, an Illinois federal judge dismissed nearly $3.5 billion of claims brought by Motorola against HannStar and other defendants. The Seventh Circuit upheld the ruling in a widely watched appeal. GCR recognized Litigation Partners Jim Kreissman, Buzz Frahn and Jason Bussey, and Associates Elizabeth Gillen and Melissa Derr Schmidt for their work on the matter.
