Heading: Other Proprietary Claims

Text: DII’s other claims seek protection of DII reports containing marketing and research material, specific information identified in DII’s user manual, and specific client contact information. The district court determined that Counts III through VI “presuppose the existence of confidential information and trade secrets” and that DII’s “failure to identify [any such information] with reasonable particularity” required dismissal. (JA at 270) As a result, these specific categories of alleged proprietary materials were not discussed by the district court at all. Depending on the circumstances, any of this information could be characterized as trade secrets. (See Section “III, A.”) On remand, the district court will have an opportunity to 22 consider DII’s other proprietary claims under the statutory criteria consistent with this court’s opinion.
