Antitrust cases are very difficult to prove (not to mention expensive) because you have to convince the court that a different marketplace would exist without the alleged monopoly, in this case Mastercard.
So it's not like a regular court case where you gather evidence about WHAT happened and prove that to the court.
In an antitrust case you have to try to prove what WOULD happen if Mastercard wasn't around, but there's no hard evidence because it's all theory --- not documented facts that happened in the past.
Not to say it can't be done, but it's much more difficult and expensive.
