One reason that the government faced difficulty defending the Sherman Antitrust Act in court was because the act did not clearly define the terms "trust" or "monopoly."

This Act was an important piece of legislation of 1890 that prohibited trust and monopolies in the United States. The federal government wanted to better regulate trade and allow other competitors to enter the market with their products, benefiting the consumer. On July 2, 1890, it was signed into law by US President Benjamin Harrison. Senator John Sherman was the man behind the support of this Act.
