Illinois Court Grants AT&T Summary Judgment on 2 Tekway Claims
1 articles · Updated · Bloomberg Law · Jul 16
Summary
An Illinois federal court threw out Tekway’s tortious interference with prospective economic advantage and civil conspiracy claims against AT&T Services at the summary-judgment stage.
The judge found Tekway could not show a reasonable expectation of ongoing employment ties with its IT consultants because those consultants had already tried to leave Tekway before any alleged interference by AT&T.
That timing undercut the factual basis for both claims, handing AT&T a full win in the case without a trial.
