Eastern District of Texas Judge David Folsom has held that Freedom Medical Inc. must arbitrate its antitrust claim against medical device rental firm Premier Purchasing Partners. Freedom had used a Premier on-line system called Passport that requires users to agree to arbitrate any disputes. The plaintiff analogized the agreement to a mandatory click through agreement, but the court held that as a sophisticated market participant, Freedom was bound by the agreement. The court did hold the limitation to single damages invalid as inconsistent with the antitrust laws treble damage standard.
