U.S. courts can be fun. Appian received over a $2 billion trade secret judgement in Virginia state court. In addition, Appian secured over $23 million in attorney fees. The case involved trade secret misappropriation and the Virginia Computer Crimes Act. Appian was represented by Patterson Belknap. The attorneys representing Appian included: Adeel A. Mangi, Muhammad U. Faridi and Jeffrey Ginsberg. The Appian Press Release is here and the Patterson Belknap Press Release is here. Apparently, a company should not call someone possibly engaged in corporate espionage for them a "spy" or something like that. That looks bad later.
