**(a) Parens patriae; monetary relief; damages; prejudgment interest**
(1) Any attorney general of a State may bring a civil action in the name of such State, as parens patriae on behalf of natural persons residing in such State, in any district court of the United States having jurisdiction of the defendant, to secure monetary relief as provided in this section for injury sustained by such natural persons to their property by reason of any violation of sections 1 to 7 of this title. The court shall exclude from the amount of monetary relief awarded in such action any amount of monetary relief (A) which duplicates amounts which have been awarded for the same injury, or (B) which is properly allocable to (i) natural persons who have excluded their claims pursuant to subsection (b)(2) of this section, and (ii) any business entity.
(2) The court shall award the State as monetary relief threefold the total damage sustained as described in paragraph (1) of this subsection, and the cost of suit, including a reasonable attorney’s fee. The court may award under this paragraph, pursuant to a motion by such State promptly made, simple interest on the total damage for the period beginning on the date of service of such State’s pleading setting forth a claim under the antitrust laws and ending on the date of judgment, or for any shorter period therein, if the court finds that the award of such interest for such period is just in the circumstances. In determining whether an award of interest under this paragraph for any period is just in the circumstances, the court shall consider only—
(A) whether such State or the opposing party, or either party’s representative, made motions or asserted claims or defenses so lacking in merit as to show that such party or representative acted

TITLE 15—COMMERCE AND TRADE
§ 15d
this section for injury sustained by such natural
persons to their property by reason of any viola-
tion of sections 1 to 7 of this title. The court
shall exclude from the amount of monetary re-
lief awarded in such action any amount of mone-
tary relief (A) which duplicates amounts which
have been awarded for the same injury, or (B)
which is properly allocable to (i) natural persons
who have excluded their claims pursuant to sub-
section (b)(2) of this section, and (ii) any busi-
ness entity.
(2) The court shall award the State as mone-
tary relief threefold the total damage sustained
as described in paragraph (1) of this subsection,
and the cost of suit, including a reasonable at-
torney’s fee. The court may award under this
paragraph, pursuant to a motion by such State
promptly made, simple interest on the total
damage for the period beginning on the date of
service of such State’s pleading setting forth a
claim under the antitrust laws and ending on
the date of judgment, or for any shorter period
therein, if the court finds that the award of such
interest for such period is just in the cir-
cumstances. In determining whether an award of
interest under this paragraph for any period is
just in the circumstances, the court shall con-
sider only—
(A) whether such State or the opposing
party, or either party’s representative, made
motions or asserted claims or defenses so lack-
ing in merit as to show that such party or rep-
resentative acted intentionally for delay or
otherwise acted in bad faith;
(B) whether, in the course of the action in-
volved, such State or the opposing party, or ei-
ther party’s representative, violated any ap-
plicable rule, statute, or court order providing
for sanctions for dila
