## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Competition & Consumer Law (ACCC / ACL)](https://ailawframework.com/practice/competition-and-consumer-law.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | Extract any clause that sets a resale price, a minimum advertised price, or a discount the distributor must give. Write no conclusion on whether the clause is lawful. |
| What the lawyer must review | Sherman Act § 1 makes a contract, combination or conspiracy in restraint of trade illegal. A clause that restricts the price at which a distributor resells is the kind of term you read under that section. No resale-price opinion was opened for this version, so do not label the clause per se unlawful or lawful under a rule of reason. Opinion 512: verify the extract against the agreement. You decide the risk and what to tell the client. |
