NEW YORK, March 31 (Reuters) - A U.S. judge on Wednesday
dismissed litigation accusing 10 large banks of conspiring to
suppress competition in the multi-trillion dollar market for
U.S. Treasury securities.
The decision by U.S. District Judge Paul Gardephe in
Manhattan came in long-running litigation by 21 pension,
retirement and benefit funds, as well as unions, banks,
individuals, and companies that traded in Treasuries.
