AT&T Accuses Sprint of Ignoring Subpoena Regarding Suit

Oct 22, 2011, 7:36 AM by Eric M. Zeman

AT&T says that Sprint has not turned over documents requested by AT&T so it can defend itself against the Justice Department's lawsuit, which seeks to block its acquisition of T-Mobile. The Justice Department sued AT&T on August, and Sprint later joined the lawsuit. In order to defend itself against the DoJ, AT&T requested a range of documents from Sprint that concern its relationships with Nextel, Virgin Mobile, and Clearwire. The documents were subpoenaed in September. "Sprint has not produced a single document," AT&T said in the court filing. "Instead, Sprint contends it is not required to comply with the subpoena." AT&T is asking the judge overseeing the case to force Sprint to hand over the documents in question. Sprint argues that paperwork requested of it by the Department of Justice earlier this year should be sufficient for AT&T's needs.
