A federal judge last week let stand most of the claims alleged by Zimmer (NYSE:ZMH) in a lawsuit accusing Stryker (NYSE:SYK) and a former sales rep of scheming to insert a “Trojan horse” into Zimmer’s Texas sales operation.
The lawsuit, filed last January in the U.S. District Court for Northern Indiana against Stryker and an ex-Zimmer rep named Cory Stovall, alleges that Stryker agreed to pay Stovall a bounty for every Zimmer customer he converts to Stryker.
“Stryker has incentivized Stovall to breach his agreement by promising an enormous salary and large monetary bonuses based on the volume of Zimmer implant business he can transition to Stryker from his former Zimmer customers,” Zimmer alleged.
