A woman whose Bellevue, WA coffee shop failed is suing Starbucks for violating the Sherman Antitrust Act. She claims that Starbucks’ practice of giving away free samples near her shop and paying above-market rent to keep out competition forced her out of business. She’s even seeking class action status. The publicity train is working as global news outlets are picking up the story, but most doubt that she will succeed in winning the lawsuit. She also managed some local news coverage back in February. Her stand shut down a year ago.
