Wisconsin Supreme Court takes on drink limit lawsuit from 2002

A 2002 antitrust lawsuit against campus-area bars for fixing drink prices will be heard by the Wisconsin Supreme Court.

According to Ald. Mike Verveer, District 4, the suit was filed by two UW-Madison students when more than 20 bars voluntarily agreed to place a limit on drink specials on Friday and Saturdays nights. He said Chancellor John Wiley, among others, is listed as a defendant in the case.
