Massachusetts Appeals Court December 30, 2002, No. 99-P-1743 (Whitehall Co. v. Merrimack Valley Distributing Co.)

McHugh, J.

Reduced to essentials, the question in this case is whether G. L. c. 93A, § 11, allows the plaintiff, a liquor wholesaler, to recover damages from a competing wholesaler who allegedly violated the price discrimination provisions of G. L. c. 138, § 25A, and from a retailer who allegedly sought and benefited from the discrimination.
