Biglaw Partners Accused of Blowing Off Intellectual Property Laws
“Two Littler Mendelson lawyers are accused in a lawsuit of misappropriating a ‘voluminous amount’ of a nonprofit’s password-protected intellectual property,” reports Debra Cassens Weiss in ABA Journal’s News.
The lawsuit says “the lawyers misappropriated more than 2,100 pages of content over a period of 17 months.”
“The material includes memoranda, templates, checklists, guides and other resources produced exclusively for the group’s members. Law firms cannot be members of the center, which advises employers on workplace law.”
