The suit includes claims of breach of contract against Schlecht, and unfair competition, interference with contract, misappropriation misappropriation n. the intentional, illegal use of the property or funds of another person for one's own use or other unauthorized purpose, particularly by a public official, a trustee of a trust, an executor or administrator of a dead person's estate, or by any of trade secrets and trade libel.

It is bordered by Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and the Atlantic Ocean (E), New Jersey and Pennsylvania (S), Lakes Erie and Ontario and the Canadian province of representing Schlecht and the other defendants. "Karlheinz Schlecht had been manufacturing a line of Thierry Rabotin shoes worldwide and in the U.S. long before Taryn Rose manufactured her line of shoes. Karlheinz Schlecht provided Taryn Rose with the blueprint for her shoes and the manufacturing capability to create a line of shoes." Schlecht filed a cross-complaint on Sept. 30, alleging breach of contract, intentional interference with prospective economic advantage, unfair competition, trade libel and violation of labor code. The cross-complaint alleged TRI failed to pay for more than $4 million worth of shoes manufactured by Schlecht.
