Staples Seeks Documents From Amazon in Federal Fight to Merge With Office Depot

Staples wants more data from Amazon.com as it prepares to fight the Federal Trade Commission over the federal regulator's challenge of its $6.3 billion merger with Office Depot. Staples filed a motion on March 10 asking a U.S. District Court in Washington D.C. to compel Amazon to produce more documents and data. A subpoena served earlier by Staples to the online marketplace giant produced only "15 heavily redacted documents," the motion said.
