Description
The plaintiffs-appellants Pacific Trading Company, a partnership, Myron Rosenthal and Jeffrey Silverman, (hereinafter referred to as Pacific) appeals from a final judgment in favor of the defendants-appellees (independent meat packers and cold storage companies), signed and entered by the District Court on December 20, 1974, and December 26, 1974, respectively. The judgment was based in part upon the several orders granting the Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b) motions of the defendants-appellees and dismissing Counts I and II of Pacifics private action complaint on the grounds that the allegations of the two counts, respectively, failed to state a claim upon which civil damages could arise and be granted to Pacific. Each of the two counts were bottomed upon an alleged breach of a meat product sales contract by the defendants-appellees through individual and in concert acts in violation of 7 U.S.C. §Â§ 181, et seq., the Packers and Stockyards Act; 7 U.S.C. §Â§ 241, et seq., United States Warehouse Act; 21 U.S.C. §Â§ 301, et seq., Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act; and 21 U.S.C. §Â§ 601, et seq., Federal Meat Inspection Act. Pacifics complaint alleges federal question jurisdiction in the District Court under 28 U.S.C. § 1331.
