The complaint alleges that Keurig unlawfully monopolized the markets for single-serve brewers and compatible cups through an anticompetitive scheme. This scheme included anticompetitive acquisitions, sham litigation, exclusive dealing, disparagement of competitors, and lockout technology. The complaint states that this conduct caused Shopko to pay supra-competitive prices for K-Cups.
