WATERLOO, Ontario -- Research In Motion Limited (RIM) (Nasdaq: RIMM ; TSX: RIM), a pioneer and world leader in the mobile communications market, announced that it has filed a fourth lawsuit against Good Technology, Inc. This lawsuit has been filed in the United States Superior Court of the State of California, Judge Raymond J. Ikola presiding. Both Good Technology and a Good Technology Vice President have been named as defendants in this complaint.
The complaint alleges that Good Technology has engaged in misappropriation of trade secrets, breach of contract, tortious interference with contracts and prospective economic relations, unfair competition, unjust enrichment, breach of implied duty of good faith and fair dealing, and civil conspiracy.
By way of relief, RIM is asking the Court for injunctive relief. In addition, RIM is asking the Court for an award of general, special and punitive damages for Good Technology's unfair competitive acts as well as attorneys' fees and costs to RIM.
In June 2002, RIM filed a separate lawsuit against Good Technology alleging that Good Technology's wireless goods and services infringe on four RIM patents within RIM's Wireless Integration Patent Portfolio. In July 2002, RIM filed an additional separate lawsuit against Good Technology alleging that Good Technology infringes on a portion of RIM's Copyright Portfolio associated with the user interface on RIM's line of BlackBerry Wireless Handhelds(TM). In July 2002, RIM filed another separate lawsuit against Good Technology alleging that Good Technology has engaged in unfair competition, false advertising, trademark infringement and trademark dilution resulting in the unlawful use of the RIM and BlackBerry(TM) marks.
