The plaintiffs, who operate a specialized First Nations Specific Claims insurance business, brought a motion for an interlocutory and permanent injunction against former employees and independent contractors who started a competing brokerage.
The plaintiffs sought to prohibit the defendants from competing, soliciting clients, and using confidential information.
The court dismissed the motion, finding no non-competition or non-solicitation agreements existed, and the plaintiffs failed to establish a strong prima facie case that the defendants misused proprietary information.
The court ordered the defendants to return and delete any of the plaintiffs' confidential information in their possession, as proposed by the defendants.
