In 2009, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear Jones v. Harris Associates, a suit brought in federal court by mutual fund investors against the firm. The mutual fund investors, who are investors in the Oakmark funds, claimed that the funds have overpaid their advisor (Harris Associates), and that the fees that Harris Associates charges Oakmark investors are higher than the fees that Harris charges institutional clients.
The suit was previously thrown out by the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit in 2008, with a judge who is a noted free-market backer, Richard Posner, arguing that sometimes marketplaces need to be reined in.
In March 2010, the Supreme Court unanimously vacated the Seventh Circuit's ruling and remanded the case.
