RIM Takes Good to Trial

By Clint Boulton

One of the several legal spats between Research In Motion (Quote, Company Info) and upstart rival Good Technology is heading to trial.

The suit, one of four in total, deals with RIM's claim that Good took customer information from RIM. In a hearing Wednesday, Canada's RIM applied for a preliminary injunction in the California Superior Court seeking to stay Sunnyvale, Calif.'s Good from using that data. But Good claimed that it is no longer using the allegedly misappropriated information, leading the court to refuse RIM's injunction request.

RIM said the judge suggested that in light of Good's voluntary restraint, damages would be an adequate solution to the problem. RIM also sought to enjoin certain use of Good's software, which it felt conflicted with its own. The court also denied this and ordered the matter go to trial.
