Lululemon asked a Manhattan federal court Friday to toss a lawsuit in an intellectual-property dispute over Peloton's clothing line, arguing Peloton improperly raced to the court to head off infringement claims by Lululemon in Los Angeles.

Peloton used the extra time it was given to respond to a cease-and-desist letter to instead file the lawsuit, which "served only one purpose -- to deprive Lululemon of its choice of venue."

It told Peloton in November that its bras and leggings infringed Lululemon's design patents and trademark rights.Lululemon allegedly warned Peloton it would sue if Peloton didn't stop infringing by Nov. 19 but extended the deadline for a response to Nov. 24 at Peloton's request.
