| Abstract | |
| This article provides the definition of criminal attempt of stealing trade secrets under the Trade Secret Act through studying the United States’Economic Espio-nage Act and criminal attempt under Model Penal Code§5.01. This article argues that a person shall be held criminally liable for his attempt to acquire other’s trade secret by an unjust measure, as long as he knew the stolen information was a trade secret. Such knowledge may be inferred from circumstances showing that the own-er has implemented reasonable measures to protect its trade secrets. | |
