In an unusual turn of events, the New York Knicks filed a lawsuit against the Toronto Raptors in August 2023, right before the start of the NBA season. The Knicks alleged theft of confidential and proprietary information after the Raptors hired a former Knicks employee. Now a court has ordered the dispute to go to private arbitration.
Amit Bindra and Kristin Hendriksen break down this unique sports episode, explaining what they believe to be the motivations behind filing the lawsuit and how this case differs from most instances of trade secret litigation. They touch upon whether this case holds merit and discuss the pros and cons of using arbitration in such situations.
