The European Union's second highest court said it had
dismissed Evonik Degussa's appeal in its entirety and that the €91 million
($143.4 million) fine therefore stood. The company had been fined for fixing the price of a
chemical used in feed for poultry and pigs after a probe into the industry by
the bloc's top antitrust body, the European Commission.
In 2006 the EU Court of First Instance reduced a fine levied by the Commission from €118 million €91 million but upheld the Commission's charge that Evonik Degussa had been breaking EU law.
