   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  13-1905
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City   
   [PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Bye and Shepherd, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Misappropriation of Trade Secrets. There was sufficient 
   evidence for the jury to conclude that a series of PowerPoint 
   presentations were trade secrets under the Missouri Uniform Trade Secrets 
   Act; the award against defendant did not give plaintiff a second recovery 
   for a single injury as its settlement with another defendant on a breach 
   of contract claim redressed an independent injury; punitive damage award 
   affirmed as there was evidence defendant acted with reckless disregard for 
   plaintiff's rights and the amount of the award is not grossly excessive 
   and a violation of due process.
