Kevin McLaren v. Smash Franchise Partners, LLC

Summary

The Court affirmed the Court of Chancery’s judgment ordering the parties to bear their own fees and costs and its discovery ruling denying McLaren’s motion for a protective order while awarding fees to Smash. It held that the Chancery Court had sufficiently addressed and properly denied McLaren’s request for attorney’s fees under the Delaware Uniform Trade Secrets Act, and that the discovery and fee-shifting decisions were not an abuse of discretion.
