In October, Stern’s Department Stores Inc., an affiliate of Federated Department Stores Inc., filed a complaint in an Ohio court naming a New York executive recruiting firm, Herbert Mines Associates, a defendant in a tortious- interference-with-contract dispute. The case subsequently was removed to the Federal District Court for the Southern District (Western Division), Ohio.
