The organization that administers the Law School Admission Test (LSAT) and coordinates law school admissions has been sued in federal court over claims it fixes law school application processing fees through a monopolistic platform. According to Bloomberg Law, the suit alleges the Law School Admission Council Inc. (LSAC) overcharged plaintiff Linvel Risner for application fees and that he would have paid much less in a competitive market. “LSAC has violated federal antitrust law and gouged law school applicants attempting to follow their dreams,” Risner said in the complaint. An LSAC spokesperson told Bloomberg that the organization strongly disagrees with the allegations. LSAC manages registration and test dates for the LSAT and is registered as a nonprofit organization.
