On July 13, 2012, Robins Kaplan LLP reached a $7.25 billion settlement with Visa, MasterCard and major US banks for alleged anticompetitive practices and price fixing in setting credit card interchange fees. One of the lead attorneys in that case, Tom Undlin, discussed what that settlement could mean for Tribes, while also discussing future anti-trust litigation that could lead to recoveries for tribes. The webinar was hosted by Tim Purdon and Brendan Johnson, co-chairs of the American Indian Law and Policy Group at Robins Kaplan LLP.
