April 16, 2008 -- MonaVie LLC (www.monavie.com), creator of the leading nutritional acai blend beverage, yesterday filed to dismiss a lawsuit brought last month by Quixtar North America, a sister company to Amway Corporation. In the court filing, MonaVie claims that the Quixtar suit is without merit.
?Out of our commitment to protect the interests of MonaVie and independent distributors everywhere, we filed a complaint against Quixtar/Amway regarding their aggressive non-compete clauses,? said Dallin Larsen, MonaVie founder and president. ?The following day, Amway filed a complaint of its own against MonaVie. We believe that Amway?s claims are baseless, and were made solely in response to the suit that we filed.?
