In 2019, some may have thought that the certiorari-worthy issues in Henry Schein, Inc. v. Archer And White Sales, Inc. were resolved by the Supreme Court. The case arose from an antitrust action involving the manufacture and distribution of dental equipment. See the Supreme Court opinion at 139 S. Ct. 524, 529 (2019).
