NEW YORK — Tory Burch is taking a stance to protect her popular ballet flats.

River Light V, which produces the Tory Burch line, filed a trademark infringement lawsuit last week against Wanted Stores Inc., Orva Stores and A&E Stores Inc., which does business as Strawberry Stores. The lawsuit alleged that all three companies sold shoes that infringe on Tory Burch's Reva ballet flat trademark.

In this article the Tory Burch line filed a lawsuit against Wanted Stores Inc., Orva Stores and A&E Stores Inc. - All three stores do business with Strawberry Stores. These stores were accused of selling ballet flats that resembled the Tory Burch line of ballet flats. The imitation flats sold from $19.99 - $39.99 and the Tory Burch flats sold at one price of $195.00. In conclusion, River Light V demanded that all of the imitation flats be taken off the shelves and destroyed.
