在美国国际贸易委员会（International Trade Commission）法官裁定Fitbit没有窃取**商的商业机密后，Jawbone在阻止竞争对手Fitbit在美国开展业务的法律诉讼中失败。Jawbone曾在去年7月向国际贸易委员会（internationaltradecommission）提出的申诉中指称，其竞争对手窃取了机密信息，此举将违反美国《关税法》，并有可能允许ITC阻止Fitbit产品进入美国。但法官迪洛德不同意Jawbone对情况的评估，称“没有任何一方被证明盗用了任何商业秘密”

The complaint originally accused Fitbit of infringing on six patents, but all of these were either invalidated or withdrawn ahead of the trial, leaving judge Lord to c***ider only the claim that Fitbit had poached Jawbone employees, who then downloaded confidential information and presented it to their new bosses. Another trade secret case is currently being c***idered in California state court, which alleges that Fitbit was "systematically plundering" Jawbone, taking 30 percent of its staff who brought "intimate knowledge of key aspects of Jawbone's business."

Despite the number of cases brought against its compe*****, Jawbone hasn't had much luck so far in wounding Fitbit: another patent claim was invalidated in July, canceling a trial scheduled for August. Fitbit CEO James Park said that his company "maintained that Jawbone's allegati*** were utterly without merit" from the outset, calling them "nothing more than a desperate attempt by Jawbone to disrupt Fitbit's momentum to compensate for their own lack of success in the market." Fitbit has pulled away from its rival in recent years, rising to become the biggest fitness band manufacturer on the market, and shipping 5.7 million devices in the second quarter of 2016. Jawbone, on the other hand, dropped out of the top five wearable manufacturers this year, according to IDC data.
