The Trial Court stated such a description would force the jury to speculate regarding what supplies were encompassed within the charge for these miscellaneous items.

Question: process.” Final Rule Establishing an Administrative Appeal Process for the Regulatory Program of the Corps of Engineers, 65 Fed. Reg. at 16488. Additionally, the preamble notes that, because physical circum stances can change over time, "JDs are not necessarily 'final' even as an administrative matter.” Id. Based on the foregoing, it seems rather doubtful that the Corps’ decision to certify Dr. Booth’s delineation constituted a final determination entitled to preclusive effect. See Zurcher v. Bilton, 379 S.C. 132, 135, 666 S.E.2d 224, 226 (2008) (issue preclusion applies when an issue has been "actually litigated and determined by a valid and final judgment”) (emphasis added). 10 .

The record also shows that, whenever Advantor conducts training seminars, it requires attendees to sign a sheet acknowledging that [t]he information provided in this training class ... is considered Proprietary and Confidential to Advantor. These instructional materials also contain trade secret information of Advantor. This information may be used only for its intended purpose and - may not be disclosed without ... consent. One of the Air Force officers who provided DRS with the Manuals had received and signed this notice. Under Florida law, a factfinder could conclude that this set of precautions (which DRS does not dispute) likely constitutes “reasonable efforts to maintain secrecy.” Fla. Stat. § 688.002(4)(b). See, e.g., Premier Lab, 10 So.3d at 206 (<HOLDING>). Cf. 55 Fla. Jur. 2d Trademarks & Unfair
