Jim Mabrey appealed a temporary injunction granted to SandStream, Inc., which prohibited him from using SandStream's confidential and trade secret information. Mabrey contended the trial court abused its discretion by granting the injunction without sufficient evidence of a probable right to relief or imminent, irreparable injury, and that the injunction was overly broad. The Court of Appeals reviewed the standards for temporary injunctions concerning trade secrets and found that SandStream presented enough evidence to establish a probable right to relief based on breach of contract and aiding in breach of fiduciary duties. The court also determined that SandStream demonstrated a probable irreparable injury for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy, and that the injunction order was sufficiently specific. Therefore, the appellate court affirmed the trial court's order.
