Circuit City sues RadioShack over stores
The spat began last year when RadioShack filed suit in a Texas district court to end a licensing arrangement with Ontario-based InterTan Inc., which Circuit City acquired in May 2004.
...Circuit City, based in Richmond, has since announced plans to rename more than 800 company- and dealer-owned stores to The Source by Circuit City.
...Circuit City's filing Tuesday in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice accuses Fort Worth, Texas-based RadioShack of trying to harm its Canadian business and misrepresenting costs of products offered to dealers under contracts with InterTan.
The suit also claims RadioShack has intentionally misrepresented the current state of the U.S. litigation "by claiming to have won the litigation when, in fact, the interim ruling of the court in Texas remains subject to change or appeal," Circuit City said.
