District of Delaware Judge Jerome D. Davis has reopened a putative class action against some of the largest providers of offshore helicopter flights to oil rigs located in the Gulf of Mexico. Plaintiff, Superior Offshore Inc., filed an amended complaint that included new evidence of a price-fixing agreement from a confidential witness. Plaintiffs allege PHI Inc., Bristow Group, Inc., and Seacore Holdings Inc. conspired between 2001 and 2005 to raise prices by around thirty percent for transportation services. The confidential witness claimed to have heard a telephone conversation between Bristow and PHI regarding price hikes. Although the confidential testimony is hearsay, the judge concluded that ruling on the admissibility this early in the proceedings would be premature. As such, Judge Davis will allow the case to go forward with limited discovery.
