A lawyer in Sydney representing Lowe's declined to comment. In documents filed at Sydney's Federal Court, Lowe's said Woolworths gave its representatives insufficient time to review voluminous paperwork related to the closure, and that Woolworths voted for the closure without those representatives' consent. It said Woolworths supplied paperwork 24 hours before board meetings on Aug. 23 and 24 that each exceeded 1,000 pages. Woolworths held the vote on Aug. 24, a day before reporting earnings for 2015, Lowe's said in the filing.
