Dismissal Of Trade Secret Misappropriation Claim Affirmed On Appeal

Mealey's ( May 10, 2019, 8:42 AM EDT) -- NEW YORK — A Second Circuit U. S. Court of Appeals panel on May 8 ruled that a federal district court did not err in dismissing a company’s trade secret misappropriation claim against its former business partner and a competitor because the claim was time-barred by the applicable statute of limitations (Universal Instruments Corp. v. Micro Systems Engineering Inc. , et al. , No. 17-2748, 2nd Cir. , 2019 U. S. App. LEXIS 13797). . . .
