Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided September 8, 1993 · Anstead, Hersey, Polen
624 So. 2d 750; 1993 Fla. App. LEXIS 9094; 1993 WL 337512 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Uniroyal Goodrich Tire Co. v. Eddings

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We grant the petition for writ of certiorari and quash the order compelling disclosure of information which the parties did not dispute constituted a trade secret. Respondents failed to meet-their burden to demonstrate that such disclosure was reasonably necessary. See Freedom Newspapers, Inc. v. Egly, 507 So.2d 1180, 1184 (Fla. 2d DCA 1987); Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. v. Cooey, 359 So.2d 1200 (Fla. 1st DCA 1978); East Colonial Refuse Service, Inc. v. Velocci, 416 So.2d 1276 (Fla. 5th DCA 1982).

ANSTEAD, HERSEY and POLEN, JJ., concur.
