Dispute Summary
The plaintiff, a manufacturer of Hi-tech Pneumatics and Hydraulics Components, sued the defendant (a former Sales Engineer) for specific performance, damages, and injunctions, alleging he breached an Employee Intellectual Property Agreement by disclosing confidential trade secrets to a competitor. The court dismissed the suit, finding that the employment restraint clause was unenforceable under Section 27 of the Contract Act and that the plaintiff failed to prove proper authorization.
