An article in Law360 higlights Beck Reed Riden LLP’s success in defeating a bid to enforce a noncompete agreement. The article is titled “Facebook Beats AI Startup’s Bid To Shield Trade Secrets.”
The article summarizes a decision by the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts:
An artificial intelligence startup has failed to prove that its first employee ran off with the company’s trade secrets when he took a job at Facebook, a Massachusetts federal judge said, denying the firm’s request to block the former worker’s ongoing research at the social media giant.
U.S. District Judge Denise J. Casper … denied Neural Magic’s bid for an injunction, saying it wasn’t clear whether the work that Aleksandar Zlateski did for Facebook even qualifies as a trade secret.
The article explains that:
Aleksandar Zlateski is represented by Russell Beck, Stephen D. Riden, and Hannah Tso Joseph of Beck Reed Riden LLP.
The case is Neural Magic Inc. v. Facebook Inc. et al., case number 1:20-cv-10444, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts.
