Defendants moved to dismiss a complaint alleging violations of civil rights and antitrust laws. The plaintiff, a podiatrist, claimed denial of hospital staff membership violated his rights under 42 U.S.C.S. §§ 1983, 1985, and 1986, and 15 U.S.C.S. §§ 1 and 2. The court dismissed the civil rights claims but allowed the antitrust claims to proceed for further discovery.
