MEMORANDUM & ORDER Plaintiff Remede Consulting Group Inc. (“Remede”) brought this action in New York Supreme Court, Nassau County, against its former employee, Defendant Shedrick Hamer, claiming that he breached his employment contract when he accessed and appropriated proprietary information and solicited another employee before leaving the company to join a competitor. (See Compl. (Dkt. 1-1).)1 Remede also asserts causes of action for breach of fiduciary duties, conversion, unjust enrichment, misappropriation of trade secrets, and unfair competition, and seeks a preliminary injunction. Mr. Hamer, a Georgia resident, successfully removed the case to federal court based on diversity of citizenship. See Remede Consulting Grp. Inc. v. Hamer, No. 19-cv-3950 (NGG) (VMS), 2020 WL 1062963, at *1 (E.D.N.Y. Mar. 5, 2020). Now before the court is Mr. Hamer’s Motion to Dismiss the Complaint pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. Pro. 12(b)(6), as well as Remede’s Motion for a Preliminary Injunction. (See Pls.’ Mot. for Injunctive Relief (“Mot. for Prelim. Inj.”) (Dkt. 1-3); Def.’s Mem. in Supp. of Mot. to Dismiss and in Opp. to Prelim. Inj. (“Mem.”) (Dkt. 20-14); Pls.’ Mem. in Opp. to Mot. to Dismiss and Reply to Def.’s Opp. to Prelim. Inj. (“Opp.”) (Dkt. 23); Def.’s Reply (“Reply”) (Dkt. 24).) For the following reasons, Mr. Hamer’s Motion to Dismiss is DENIED as to the first cause of action, for breach of contract, and GRANTED as to the other claims asserted.
