  1. United States v. General Electric Co.

    40 F. Supp. 627 (S.D.N.Y. 1941)   Cited 11 times
    In United States v. General Electric Company, D.C., 40 F. Supp. 627, the court stated that one of the tests would be whether or not the only difference between two counts appear to be the stress or emphasis which is placed on a particular phase, result or objective of the single conspiracy in restraint of interstate and foreign commerce.

    And to restrict the evidential processes for duly proving the case as laid in the indictment, which we think would be the inevitable result of granting many of the demands of the defendants, is unwarranted under the record before this court. See Swift Co. v. United States, 196 U.S. 375, 25 S.Ct. 276, 49 L.Ed. 518; Kettenbach et al. v. United States, 9 Cir., 202 F. 377; United States v. Pierce et al., D.C., 245 F. 888."

  2. United States v. General Petroleum Corp. of California

    33 F. Supp. 95 (S.D. Cal. 1940)   Cited 13 times

    And to restrict the evidential processes for duly proving the case as laid in the indictment, which we think would be the inevitable result of granting many of the demands of the defendants, is unwarranted under the record before this court. See Swift Co. v. United States, 196 U.S. 375, 25 S.Ct. 276, 49 L.Ed. 518; Kettenbach et al. v. United States, 9 Cir., 202 F. 377; United States v. Pierce et al., D.C., 245 F. 888. In addition to the informative allegations in the indictment, the submission of material by defendants to the Federal Trade Commission in a lengthy investigation by that body of the subject matter of this prosecution, as well as evidence produced before the special grand jury which brought the indictment at bar, much of the latter now being lodged with the clerk of this court subject to inspection and scrutiny of defendants, shows that a large part of the matter asked for is already known or available to defendants.
