LOS ANGELES—FedEx Corp. on Friday filed suit asking a federal judge to stop one of its largest delivery contractors from spreading misinformation about its business for financial gain, and confirmed that it severed its relationship with him, effective immediately.
FedEx’s lawsuit seeks injunctive relief and monetary damages from a “coordinated and multi-faceted campaign orchestrated” by Spencer Patton, who has 225 FedEx Ground routes in 10 states as well as businesses that offer services to the roughly 6,000 U.S. contractors that transport and deliver packages for that unit.
