Wei v. Great Wall Technology
Respondents Bo Wei and Broadtron Technology (hereafter jointly Plaintiffs) sued appellants Great Wall Technology Company, Ltd., ExcelStor Technology Group, ExcelStor Technology, Inc.,[1] InchStor Technology, Inc., Eddie Lui, and Samuel Leung (hereafter jointly Defendants) for breach of contract, misappropriation of trade secrets, and promissory fraud arising out of an agreement to invest in Plaintiffs company. The jury found in favor of Plaintiffs on their breach of contract causes of action, but denied their fraud claims. The court granted Defendants motion for nonsuit on the misappropriation of trade secrets cause of action, but denied Defendants motion for attorney fees pursuant to Civil Code section 3426.4 on that cause of action.
On appeal, Defendants contend Wei cannot recover for wrongful termination as a matter of law, Weis damages were speculative, the court abused its discretion when it allowed Weis damages experts to testify, the special verdict form improperly allowed Wei to recover twice for breach of contract, and the court erred in denying Defendants motion for attorney fees on the misappropriation of trade secrets cause of action. Court find no error and affirm the judgment.
