Plaintiff wins case but still loses profits

Description

Abstract: When a Wall Street trader-turned-fitness-guru discovered that a couple of her employees had stolen her proprietary information to set up a competing business, she “successfully” sued — yet failed to recover the lost profits she sought. This article illustrates the importance of proving not just liability but also damages. It also shows how a financial expert can make or break a case. Citation: Pure Power Boot Camp v. Warrior Fitness Boot Camp, No. 08 Civ. 4810 (THK), Sept. 12, 2011 (S.D.N.Y.)
