(Reuters) -Software company Pegasystems convinced a Virginia appeals court on Tuesday to throw out a $2 billion jury verdict for rival Appian in a court battle over Pegasystems' alleged theft of Appian's trade secrets.
The award from 2022 had been the largest damages verdict in Virginia court history, the Court of Appeals of Virginia said in the decision.
