In 2010, Dud Slyjester ("DS") created a wonderful new invention, he called it the "Wonderful." In 2011, he showed a prototype of the Wonderful at a trade show for wonderful things. Other than the prototype, which DS took with him and never let competitors really see how it worked, DS kept all aspects of the Wonderful secret in his shop.Foulmouth Industries ("FI") saw the prototype at the show and was deeply impressed. in 2012, FI was invited to DS' workshop to hear more about the Wonderful. Although no papers were signed, FI agreed that the meeting was "confidential." However, FIsurreptitiously took a prototype with them when they left. In 2012, Eric Mimikus was walking past DS' shop and found a working prototype of the Wonderful sitting on the sidewalk. He took it home and has now sold it to Tulip Enterprises who now have their version of the Wonderful on the market.In 2013, FI starting selling an identical version of the Wonderful without DS' permission. In 2014, Guy Badanoff saw the Wonderful and was able to make a perfect copy of it himself and began selling his version immediately--it has been a big seller. If DS sues these actors for misappropriation, against whom will he be successful?
