Comments on: HP wins restraining order against former executive

Judge orders man who accused HP of snooping on Dell to withdraw his countersuit against company, but says he is free to refile under seal.

Dude, you're getting a Dell...before Dell gets it

of course, I'm shocked that an ethical company like HP would engage in this sort of behavior.

Not that I believe the guy on the hook for his own misdeeds.

Priviliged Justice

This seems to be a case of competitive practices, not spy vs spy.
H.P. is concerned about competition from within the Printing Industry and within its own ranks, not stealing Proprietary Technology. Kamb's vigorous defense includes a deposition up-front and a Counter suit, not just a STORY about what his Lawyer claims happened. The idea any Judge in America could ORDER a counter suit to be filed SEALED (not in the view of the public) with no mention of revealing "Trade Secrets" is another example of a 2 tiered Justice System for the Powerful.
Hiring the President of Dell in Japan as a Consultant? Do you think say... ABC would hire the President of NBC or CBS as a Consultant simply for their insight into the competitive nature of the players in their own industry and pay them indirectly?
When Kamb constructed a Deposition, he turned a "He said, She said" story, into Evidence (Prosecutable if Purgered). H.P. only has a story (as usual) and another Spineless or Corrupt Judge in their pocket. I really hope the "Temporary" and "Sealed" can be ORDERED removed from this wonderful Drama and our Children can see it all unfold say... on Court TV?
