Cypress company sues over franchise agreement

A Cypress company offering computer education for young children is suing over franchise service fees.

Computertots Inc. filed a lawsuit on Dec. 22 in the Harris County District Court against Devra and Michael Predom, alleging breach of contract.

The plaintiff says that in June of 2006, it entered into a franchise agreement with the defendants, which allowed them to use Computertots' trademarks and franchise names to start a computer education business for young children. According to the brief, the Predoms have failed to pay the franchise service fees, trade invoices and advertising and promotional fund fees.  

Computertots is seeking actual damages, attorney’s fees and court costs.

It is being represented in the case by Cypress attorney Nancy McCoy.
