A complaint filed in court by Cooper Tire, which is seeking the forceful finalization of its merger with India’s Apollo Tyres, is the latest speed bump in the road for the $2.5 billion deal.
Reports say Cooper recently filed a complaint accusing Apollo of attempting to renegotiate the deal by delaying an agreement with the United Steelworkers Union at Cooper. According to court documents, Apollo is demanding a price cut for the merger deal.

In response, Cooper claims such risks were part of their agreed-upon merger deal. The company’s court filing is accusing Apollo of breaching their merger agreement.
