Description

PATRICK E. HIGGINBOTHAM, Circuit Judge: The Greenwood Utilities Commission, of Laflore County, Mississippi, appeals from a summary judgment in its antitrust suit against Mississippi Power Company. Armed with the Sherman Act, Greenwood attacks the refusal to allocate electric power to it by the Southeastern Power Administration, a division of the Department of Energy. The power refused would have been transmitted over power lines owned by Mississippi Power and its sister companies. Greenwood asserts that SEPA's decision was a product of monopoly power held by Mississippi Power and its affiliates over the transmission of electricity from SEPA, and alleges that acts by these entities violated both Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act. Putting aside acts protected by the First Amendment, we conclude that SEPA's decision not to allocate power to Greenwood and the SEPA-Mississippi Power contract incorporating that decision did not violate the antitrust laws. We affirm a magistrate's grant of summary judgment in favor of Mississippi Power.
