SDNY COURTHOUSE,
June 17 – Zurich American Life
Insurance Company sued its
former employee Jon Nagel,
claiming he took confidential
information.
On May 3,
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Jed S. Rakoff held an
oral argument. Inner City
Press covered it.
Nagel's
lawyer said this is really
about her client emailing
documents to his gmail account
in order to print them, during
a time that Zurich ordered its
employees to be working from
home. This, she said, was not
a taking. Judge
Rakoff asked, sensibly, Then
what would be?
The
response was, withholding
information from Zurich, or
passing it to others. Why
didn't Zurich give its
employees printers? Why
indeed.
There is also the
question of diversity. Nagel's
lawyer says he does not reside
in Florida.
On June 17,
minute after concluding the
day in a child sex jury trial,
Judge Rakoff held an order
argument in this case. He told
counsel, Let me take you off
the hook. The brief is to be
10 pages double spaced, the
response 7 such pages.
The case is
Zurich American Life Insurance
Company v. Nagel, 20-cv-11091
