Description
The legal treatment of RPM has stirred up controversy in the USA and the EU for a long time.
In its 2007 Leegin decision the U.S. Supreme Court overruled a long standing precedent and decided to no longer apply a per-se prohibition to RPM agreements. Nowadays a rule of reason analysis applies to RPM as well as to vertical non-price agreements. However, it remains to be seen what the rule of reason approach to RPM actually entails. On the EU-level a more restrictive approach is currently applied to RPM agreements.
This work assesses if and to what degree the post-Leegin development should be an impetus to re-evaluate EU competition law on RPM.
