TANGERANG (JP): The Tangerang District Court has turned down a
lawsuit filed by a customer against Lippo Shop's internet-based
shopping website over alleged deception.

The lawyer representing Lippo Shop, Marselina Simatupang, said
on Friday that the court has also dropped the plaintiff's demand
for Rp 2 billion (US$200,000) in compensation after finding the
lawsuit unproven.

The customer, Kusnoro, brought Lippo Shop to court for failing
to live up to its promise to deliver 1,600 cartons of cigarettes
that he ordered by phone last October. The order was made five
times.

In its defense, Lippo Shop said it could not deliver all of
Kusnoro's order, citing an agreement between the company and its
customers that an order exceeding 1,000 cartons of cigarettes is
not allowed due to limited supplies. (41)
