Reacting to the Commission’s order - which upheld the October 1997 findings of an Federal Trade Commission Administrative Law Judge - an attorney for Toys ‘R’ Us was reported as stating that the toys retailer was 'disappointed but not surprised that the agency has upheld its own charge.' The attorney added that Toys ‘R’ Us intends to appeal the FTC’s Order in federal court. Toys ‘R’ Us has 650 stores in the United States and another 300 stores in other countries.
