DISCOVERY OF DEFENDANT’S SOURCE CODE, A TRADE SECRET, SHOULD HAVE BEEN ORDERED FOR “ATTORNEYS AND EXPERT EYES ONLY” (FIRST DEPT).

The First Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined the discovery-production of defendant’s source code, a trade secret, should have been for “attorneys and expert eyes only.”

The production of defendants’ source code, which is a trade secret … , should have been ordered to be produced for “attorneys and expert eyes only” … . Plaintiffs’ assertion that they have the expertise to review and opine on the source code and should not be subjected to retaining an expert, does not support unfettered access to defendants’ confidential algorithm. BEC Capital, LLC v Bistrovic, 2019 NY Slip Op 08144, First Dept 11-12-19
