Kansas City Star via MLM Business Opportunities:
Plaintiffs in a massive antitrust action against Amway Corp. overcame another hurdle this week in their long quest to get their case heard by a jury.
A federal judge on Monday refused to dismiss all but one of eight counts against the company, finding that the plaintiffs’ allegations were legally sufficient to support claims of price fixing, conspiracy and other charges.
U.S. District Judge Richard E. Dorr agreed to dismiss only a civil racketeering claim, ruling that it failed to establish “a pattern of racketeering activity.”
“We are obviously pleased with the ruling,” said Kansas City lawyer Dan Boulware, who represents several Amway distributors, including Nitro Distributing Inc. of Springfield and two distributors in St. Joseph. “All of our claims survived with the exception of the racketeering claim, which was a new claim we had recently added, and the judge kept the door open for that.”

Funny how you didn't mention this bit in your excerpt -
"The court noted that, at this early stage of the proceeding, it was legally required to accept Nitro’s unproven allegations as true."
Now, while I doubt the court said the phrase "unproven allegation" they most certainly noted they had to accept them true or not, so this really says nothing except the Nitro lawyers didn't do anything really dumb in their submission.
Funny?
I simply posted the first 4 paragraphs. People are free to follow the links and read the entire article should they choose to do so.
What's funny how you leave this completely off of your "truth" site.
I read this case heading on amquix.info. Heading seems success for nitro, but later reading means nothing happened really.
The case is scheduled to go to trial in early 2008.
Ok. Case in progress, that's all.
