Klein v. Lionel Corporation‪.‬

The plaintiff, Klein, brought suit against The Lionel Corporation and others for treble damages alleging price discrimination under the Robinson-Patman Act of 1936. 49 Stat. 1526, 15 USCA § 13. The court below gave summary judgment in favor of The Lionel Corporation and other defendants on the ground that Klein had no cause of action for a discrimination under the Act since Klein was not a purchaser from Lionel but purchased Lionel products through wholesalers or jobbers. 138 F.Supp. 560 (1956). Klein appeals from the summary judgment insofar as it relates to Lionel.
