in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

An antitrust lawsuit against a corporation can be filed where it's based, where it can be found, or where it does business. Legal papers can be served wherever the corporation is found.

This law expands where a corporation can be sued under the antitrust laws. A suit, action, or proceeding under the antitrust laws against a corporation may be brought not only in the judicial district where the corporation is an inhabitant — where it's based — but also in any district where the corporation may be found or where it transacts business. All process in these cases may be served in the district where the corporation is an inhabitant, or wherever it may be found.
