Winston represents a class of professional swimmers alleging World Aquatics (WA) violated antitrust laws by blocking their participation in the competing International Swimming League. After WA won summary judgment, Winston successfully appealed, arguing the court applied improper antitrust standards and wrongly denied certification of a damages class. In September 2024, the Ninth Circuit reversed both rulings, reviving all claims and issuing a landmark ruling on the possible application of the per se rule or quick look review to sports-associations rules. Am Law awarded Winston “Litigator of the Week” Runner-Up recognition for the win. In November 2024, the Ninth Circuit denied rehearing. In April 2025, the district court certified a damages class.

Imports are goods that enter the customs territory of a given country after having been exported from a foreign destination. Imports and exports together represent foundational aspects of international trade. Therefore, they are often subject to trade agreements between jurisdictions, trade remedies that increase the cost of importing goods, and more cross-border considerations. In addition, countries may impose customs duties and/or tariffs, in other words taxes, on goods that enter the customs territory of a given country. Imports are fundamental to international trade and commerce. As such, legal issues arising from imports may implicate foreign policy, regulatory compliance, and cross-border transactions.
