McDonald’s Corporation*, question whether franchisees remain truly independent price-setters when contributing sales data to a common system that recommends charges. McDonald's denies the allegations, stating franchisees set their own prices and the tools are optional, while the lawsuits contend that the system, potentially involving Deloitte Consulting LLP, creates an anticompetitive agreement by pooling nonpublic data and pressuring franchisees to adhere to recommendations.
