SF751

The bill SF No 751 aims to increase the penalties for antitrust violations in Minnesota. If someone violates certain sections of antitrust law, the new civil penalties will rise to a maximum of $150,000, up from $50,000. Additionally, if someone doesn't comply with a court's final judgment or decree regarding antitrust law violations, they could face civil penalties up to $300,000, increased from $100,000. For criminal offenses related to willful antitrust violations, the penalties would include a possible felony charge, a fine of up to $150,000 (previously $50,000), and/or imprisonment for up to seven years.
