Sec. 35-44b. Judicial construction of Connecticut Antitrust Act.

      Sec. 35-44b. Judicial construction of Connecticut Antitrust Act. It is the intent of the General Assembly that in construing sections 35-24 to 35-46, inclusive, the courts of this state shall be guided by interpretations given by the federal courts to federal antitrust statutes.

      (P.A. 92-248, S. 2.)

      Cited. 235 C. 1. Sec. 35-35 must be interpreted consistently with relevant provisions of federal case law. 260 C. 59. This section does not deprive the state of standing to pursue a parens patriae action for antitrust damages to its general economy pursuant to Sec. 35-32(c)(2) because this section does not incorporate the federal preclusion of general economy damages into the state antitrust scheme. 286 C. 454.
