By Editorial Team

A California battery company has responded to Energizer and Walmart's allegations of colluding to fix retail battery prices by calling Energizer's counterclaims of inducing an account manager to steal trade secrets as "tactical and meritless." The battery company has requested a federal judge to dismiss these claims.

The case involves a dispute between the California battery company and Energizer, with Walmart also named in the allegations. The battery company has refuted Energizer's claims, stating that they lack substance and are merely a strategic move.

Legal teams involved in the case include Berger Montague, Gibbs Mura, Gibson Dunn, and Schneider Wallace. Companies mentioned in the case are Amazon.com Inc., Cottrell Inc., Dell Technologies Inc., Energizer Holdings Inc., and Walmart Inc. The case is being heard in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.
