COOKS, Judge.

Plaintiffs, who consist of several dozen buyers and/or processors of crawfish, appeal the trial court's granting of the defendants' motions for summary judgment, which dismissed the remaining claims of the buyer/processor plaintiffs. For the following reasons, we reverse the summary judgment grants, and remand the matter back to the trial court for trial on the merits.
