Dion-Kindem & Crockett Announces U.S. District Court Orders Actress Kate Hudson Back to State Court to Answer Charges of Fraud and Misappropriation

BUSINESS WIRE

According to the law firm of Dion-Kindem & Crockett, the U.S. District Court ordered today that Kate Hudson and David Babaii for WildAid LLC respond to 220 Laboratories' lawsuit as it was originally filed against them. The District Court rejected the defendants' argument that 220 Laboratories' claims are preempted by the Copyright Act; the lawsuit will be sent back to be heard by the Superior Court of the State of California.

Crockett on behalf of 220 Laboratories that include misappropriation of trade secrets, fraud and breach-of-contract.
