ES&S reaches deal on trade secrets (YES that ES&S!)

http://www.omaha.com/article/20101014/NEWS97/710159948/-1#es-amp-s-reaches-deal-on-trade-secrets

Election Systems & Software has reached a settlement with a former employee and his consulting firm over trade secrets.

Documents filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Omaha show that U.S. Magistrate Judge Thomas Thalken canceled a January trial after being notified of the deal with James Dalton of Granger, Ind.

ES&S attorney Michael Cox declined to give details of the settlement. A message left for Dalton’s attorney wasn’t immediately returned.

The Omaha company said in its lawsuit that Dalton and his Indiana firm were using copyrighted software to help state and local governments manage elections.

ES&S, which is partly owned by the Omaha World-Herald, manufactures voting machines and software products. It operates election services in 39 states and overseas.
