Pastor v ERI

Robert Bradley Pastor, a federal prisoner, appeals pro se the district court’s dismissal of his action alleging that defendants conspired to drive South Sea Imports, Inc., a California corporation, out of business by monopolizing the coral rock importation business and driving down prices. The district court properly dismissed Pastor’s action because the complaint alleged direct injuries to South Sea Imports, Inc., and only indirect injuries to Pastor himself. See id. (stating that a shareholder may not sue as an individual if his or her injuries are merely incidental to or an indirect result of injuries to the corporation); The district court properly rejected Pastor’s attempt to represent South Sea Imports, Inc. Affirmed. [Mr. Horwitz represented the defendant / respondent].
