California Codes, Civil Code - CIV, Division 4 — General Provisions, Part 1 — Relief, Title 5 — Uniform Trade Secrets Act, Section 3426.2
(a) Actual or threatened misappropriation may be enjoined. Upon application to the court, an injunction shall be terminated when the trade secret has ceased to exist, but the injunction may be continued for an additional period of time in order to eliminate commercial advantage that otherwise would be derived from the misappropriation.
(b) If the court determines that it would be unreasonable to prohibit future use, an injunction may condition future use upon payment of a reasonable royalty for no longer than the period of time the use could have been prohibited.
(c) In appropriate circumstances, affirmative acts to protect a trade secret may be compelled by court order.
Notes
Allows injunctions against actual or threatened trade-secret misappropriation, but requires termination when the trade secret ceases to exist unless extra time is needed to eliminate remaining commercial advantage. If prohibiting future use would be unreasonable, the court may condition use on a reasonable royalty for no longer than the prohibitable period and may compel affirmative protective acts when appropriate.
