1.CBC is a St. Louis, Missouri based company that is a leader in providing fantasy sports games to sports enthusiasts throughout the country. Major League Baseball has threatened that CBC’s continued use of baseball statistics is a violation of its “intellectual property” rights in the baseball statistics.

2. This is an action for a declaratory judgment that CBC has not, through the operation of its sports fantasy games, violated or infringed any intellectual property or other right of Major League Baseball, including but not limited to any alleged copyright, trademark right, or publicity right allegedly owned or controlled by Major League Baseball, and that CBC has not taken any action that constitutes false and/or deceptive advertising or trade practices under state or federal law. This complaint arises out of Major League Baseball’s declared intentions to force CBC to discontinue using the sports statistics in its fantasy sports games.
