I thought the lawsuit in question was about Zenefits allegedly slandering ADP and not the legality of ADP cutting off Zenefits.

Sure, the lawsuit is about Zenefits lying about the situation after ADP cut them off. That is important because the Zenefit/ADP hybrid customers want to know who is at fault and Zenefits is implying that ADP terminated some kind of "partnership", which is both false and casts ADP in a bad light. That, in turn, could cost them money and customers. and these factors together are pretty much the base criteria for slander.
