    Computer Forensics Int. Helps Inkjet Win Court Case

    DALLAS–With Help From Computer Forensics Int., Inkjet International, a high quality large format imaging firm, recently won its case against a former Inkjet general manager and an investment banker. Prior to leaving Inkjet to form his own digital imaging company with his co-defendant, the defendant emailed Inkjet's customer database to his home computer in an attempt to steal intellectual property from Inkjet. They firmly denied the allegations put forth by Inkjet believing that no one would find out since they had deleted the email and the attachment containing the customer database from their home computer. Larry Thomasson COO of Computer Forensics Int. explained, "Our forensic specialists were able to recover the email and the database for Inkjet and subsequently testified to the findings of our forensic analysis." The defendants lost their credibility and the case.

    After a three-week trial, a Dallas jury rendered a $1.87 million verdict in favor of Inkjet International. The jury of seven women and five men heard the evidence in two phases. In the first phase, among other things, the jury found that Inkjet's former general manager breached his fiduciary duties, misappropriated trade secrets, and engaged in fraud. In the second phase, the jury found that the defendants acted with malice

    Mr. Thomasson explained that many lawyers, judges and even would-be criminals incorrectly assume that deleted or corrupted files are irretrievable. However, with the forensic technology we have available to us no computer crime can go unsolved.
