A federal appeals court revived for a second time a 11-year-old defamation lawsuit by bedding retailer Mattress Firm against adjustable bed maker Sleep Number.
The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said a lower court judge misinterpreted New York law in dismissing claims first brought in March 2007 by Sleepy's, now part of Mattress Firm, against Select Comfort, renamed Sleep Number last November.
