ST. LOUIS — A St. Charles sports agent is suing a former partner in a dispute over their share of a former St. Louis Cardinals pitcher's salary in Japan.
Platinum Sports and Entertainment Management, of St. Charles, sued Pierce and Associates and Steve Pierce of Arizona in April in St. Charles County Circuit Court. Pierce and his firm filed a motion in federal court in St. Louis Thursday seeking to move the case there.
The suit says the two agencies entered into a contract in 2011 to represent Brandon Dickson, and that the contract renewed automatically each year.
