Now-defunct league alleged anticompetitive policiesSuit initially sought $500m in damages
A federal court jury sided with the US Soccer Federation and Major League Soccer on Monday in an antitrust lawsuit brought against the organizations by a now defunct league that sued after it did not have its second-tier status renewed.
After the verdict was announced, Judge Hector Gonzalez in Brooklyn dismissed the case brought in 2017 by the North American Soccer League (NASL), which disbanded months after the federation’s decision not to renew the status.
