Represented an inventor in its petition for declaratory judgment and in a counterclaim against it for breach of fiduciary duty by usurpation of a corporate opportunity. The case is significant because it addressed the then-novel issue of a common law action for usurpation of corporate opportunity in the context of Louisiana’s corporate fiduciary law. The client prevailed in its defense of the preliminary injunction and on a motion for summary judgment.
