Quibi has convinced a California federal judge that it should be allowed to keep using its Turnstyle feature while a dispute over that technology's origin plays out

Quibi has convinced a California federal judge that it should be allowed to keep using its Turnstyle feature while a dispute over that technology's origin plays out.

During a May 7 hearing conducted over the phone before U.S. District Judge John A. Kronstadt, Quibi lawyer Michael Jacobs of Morrison Foerster ripped Eko's claims of irreparable harm — especially that its reputation as an innovator would be injured if its injunction request were denied. More than two months later, and after a transfer to a new judicial officer, U.S. District Judge Christina A. Snyder on Monday denied the motion for a preliminary injunction finding Eko hadn’t sufficiently proven it would be irreparably harmed without such relief.

Snyder notes that while Quibi's CES presentation featuring the Turnstyle technology was well received, it's not necessarily true that said gain came at the expense of Eko's reputation. She notes, in a redacted paragraph, that Quibi "invested heavily in marketing and original content" — the exact figure is in the millions, but remains confidential.
