Master File No. 4-95-107 (D. Minn)
Ms. Caldwell was one of plaintiffs' counsel in this antitrust action

and agencies located throughout the country, and the American Society

domestic airlines acted together to implement identical and drastic
reductions in the rate of base commissions paid to travel agents for
booking domestic flights. Ms. Caldwell was primarily responsible for
all discovery of one of the defendant airlines, deposing over twenty
witness of the airlines during a three week period. Plaintiffs were
successful in defeating the airlines' summary judgment motion, and,
on the eve of trial, plaintiffs obtained a multi-million dollar settlement.
