    The correct answer is C) the law did not adequately define trusts or monopolies.

    One of the weaknesses of the Sherman anti-trust act that made difficult to argue in court was that the law did not adequately define trusts or monopolies.

    The act was not as specific as it should be, and left open many situations that were used in court by many companies to their favor. Judges couldn't have enough evidence of the existence of a monopoly.

    The Sherman Anti-Trust Act was approved on July 2, 1890. It prohibited the monopolistic practice, The act prohibited contracts of conspiracies that affected fair trade practices. The problem was that the act left some concepts of interpretation.
