MEMORANDUM OPINION & ORDER
WILHOIT, Chief Judge.

Plaintiff accuses the Defendant of unfair trade practices including coercive marketing plans, illegal payoffs, and commercial bribery to obtain an unfair competitive advantage. Defendant denies any wrongdoing and accuses the Plaintiff, in turn, of unfair, anticompetitive conduct as well, including defaming Defendant and abusing the Court system in an effort to stifle legitimate competition.
