Federal Judge Overturns $72 Million Trade Secrets Verdict Against Boeing

In a significant legal development, a Washington federal judge has nullified a $72 million jury award previously granted to electric jet startup Zunum Aero Inc. against The Boeing Co. The lawsuit accused Boeing of misappropriating Zunum’s trade secrets. However, the judge ruled that Zunum presented “only vague and amorphous descriptions” of the trade secrets during the trial, leading to the cancellation of the jury’s decision.
