Description
The City of Cleveland appeals a jury verdict for Cleveland Electric Illuminating ("Cleveland Electric") in this antitrust case. On July 1, 1975, the City sued Cleveland Electric and several other utilities, alleging that they combined to restrain trade, to monopolize and attempt to monopolize the electric power market in Cleveland and surrounding service areas in violation of sections one and two of the Sherman Act. 15 U.S.C. §Â§ 1, 2. After the other defendants settled out of the case, the City amended its complaint to charge Cleveland Electric with a section two violation only -- monopolization and attempt to monopolize in the relevant market. The first trial ended in a hung jury, the re-trial resulted in a jury verdict for Cleveland Electric, and is the subject of this appeal, wherein the City alleges prejudicial and erroneous rulings by the trial court.
