The Propel Fuels theft of trade secrets trial against P66 is supposed to kick off today.
There are 3 ways this can go, none of them being particularly good for Phillips:
- Go to trial and win in which case the status quo is merely maintained.
- Go to trial and lose in which case the risk of a large judgment against Phillips is great.
- Settle before a judgement is rendered in which case Phillips would be liable for some amount.
