Colorado's Crocs Inc. has been accused in a lawsuit by Oregon's Columbia Sportswear Co. of misappropriating trade secrets, according to a news report.
The Oregonian newspaper of Portland reports on its website, OregonLine.com, that Portland-based Columbia (NASDAQ: COLM) added the accusation in an amendment to an existing lawsuit Tuesday in an Oregon court.
The suit also accuses Niwot-based Crocs (NASDAQ: CROX) of intentional contract interference and aiding and abetting breach of duty of loyalty. The suit asks that Crocs be ordered to give up profits, the Oregonian reports.
