S.D. Miss. Judge Halil Ozeren dismissed a complaint by a hotel associate alleging that golf courses violated the antitrust laws by offering lower voucher prices to a golfers’ association than to the hotels. The court held that the complaint failed to adequately allege an effect on interstate commerce as required by the federal antitrust laws. The court deemed the plaintiff’s reference to the use of out-of-state credit cards in a reply brief inadequate to meet its burden.
