FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION
[Dkt. 9242]

 

College Football Association, et al.; Prohibited Trade Practices 
and Affirmative Corrective Actions

AGENCY: Federal Trade Commission.

ACTION: Final order.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This final order dismisses the complaint which alleged that 
the College Football Association (CFA) and Capital Cities/ABC, Inc. 
illegally restrained competition through agreements which gave ABC 
exclusive rights to televise certain college football games. The final 
order to dismiss was due to the Commission's lack of jurisdiction over 
CFA, citing its not-for-profit nature. Dismissal was also determined to 
be in the public interest.

DATES: Complaint issued September 5, 1990. Final order issued June 16, 
1994.\1\

    \1\Copies of the Complaint, Initial Decision, Opinion of the 
Commission, Final Order, and Statement of Commissioner Azcuenaga are 
available from the Commission's Public Reference Branch, H-130, 6th 
Street and Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20580.
