Appeal Dismissal Os Suit On DuPont Government To File High Court Appeal WASHINGTON (INS) — The Justice department announced today that it would appeal the dismissal of the government's antitrust case against the DuPont Co. and General Motors Corp. Attorney general Herbert Brownell, Jr., said a notice of appeal to the supreme court would be filed in Chicago, where the long and controversial case was tried; Brownell said he would ask the supreme court to overrule the decision of Federal Judge Walter J. Labuy. The judge threw out the case last Dec. 3, declaring that the facts showed no restraint of trade of monopolization by the multi-million dollar companies. The justice department’s oneSentence announcement gave no reasons for an appeal. However, the justice department was known to want a decision on the legal principles involved in the case, since Labuy ruled on the facts alone.
