A federal jury has found in favor of a South Florida circuit board distributor claiming to have been financially victimized by a major player in China’s manufacturing sector.

A nearly $1.1 million verdict was reached in Circuitronix LLC v. Shenzen Kinwong Electronic Co. Ltd. The case, which was originally filed in the Southern District of Florida in July 2017, alleged Chinese manufacturer Shenzhen Kinwong Electronic Co. Ltd. had stolen trade secrets from Circuitronix, a company that specializes in printed circuit boards. The Fort Lauderdale-based business accused Kinwong of committing fraud and engaging in unlawful conduct in order to shortchange the plaintiff. The two parties began conducting business together in 2005, and following several disputes, entered into a settlement agreement in 2010. The complaint contends the defendant “had no intention of honoring its commitments not to circumvent” the plaintiff.
