Irving oil sues former execs and their new company

July 14, 2006

NORTH HAVERHILL, N.H. --Irving Oil has sued a new competitor that's run by three former Irving executives, claiming the men stole Irving information to start their own company in Lebanon (New Hampshire).
The lawsuit involves Simple Energy. Irving says the new company's founders took copies of customer contracts, pricing information and other sensitive information before leaving Irving last month. It wants a judge to order Simple Energy to stop operating with Irving information for six months, return all confidential information and pay unspecified damages.

Simple Energy's lawyer says the company has no Irving trade secrets and accused Irving of trying to run a competitor out of business.
