In the ruling issued August 27, 2021, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Holly J. Fujie granted Beyond Meat\u2019s motion for summary adjudication on Don Lee Farms\u2019 claims for misappropriation of trade secrets and unfair competition. As a result, those claims will not proceed to trial, which is now set for May 16, 2022.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Court\u2019s ruling puts an end to the fictional narrative Don Lee Farms has attempted to use throughout this case that Beyond Meat misappropriated Don Lee Farms\u2019 trade secrets to manufacture the Beyond Burger and other products. Beyond Meat will vigorously defend against Don Lee Farms\u2019 remaining claims against Beyond Meat, which are premised on Beyond Meat\u2019s alleged breach of the parties\u2019 contract and Don Lee Farms\u2019 allegation that it was fraudulently induced to continue working with Beyond Meat despite profiting from the parties\u2019 relationship. Beyond Meat also intends to pursue its own claims against Don Lee Farms\u2014including its claim that Don Lee Farms misappropriated Beyond Meat\u2019s trade secrets to create its own line of copycat products. Beyond Meat seeks millions of dollars in damages from Don Lee Farms and its owners Donald Goodman, Daniel Goodman, and Brandon Goodman.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nBeyond Meat invested millions of dollars in research and development to bring its revolutionary products to consumers around the world. Don Lee Farms served as Beyond Meat\u2019s co-manufacturer from 2014 to the spring of 2017, when Beyond Meat discovered dangerous pathogens at Don Lee Farms\u2019 facility in Mansfield, Texas. Unwilling to risk consumer safety, Beyond Meat terminated its relationship with Don Lee Farms. Don Lee Farms retaliated by suing Beyond Meat in 2017, asserting, among other things, claims for trade secrets misappropriation and unfair competition. Although Don Lee Farms had no prior experience manufacturing plant-based meat products, it claimed it owned the procedures for manufacturing Beyond Meat\u2019s proprietary plant-based meat products. The Court has now outright rejected that claim.\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Beyond Meat<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\nBeyond Meat, Inc.
