We continue to represent a leading manufacturer of measurement instruments in a long-running dispute concerning claims in relation to its proprietary software.
This is a significant matter for our client because the proprietary software is business critical and gives it a competitive advantage in the market.
We are pursuing various entities arising from the central allegation that a former employee and multiple related entities have made unauthorised use and disclosures of our client’s proprietary software in breach of confidence and in a manner that infringes our client’s copyright. From the outset, we worked with the client to develop a case strategy, including working with software experts to produce expert evidence to support the claim.
A confidential settlement has been concluded with one defendant.
