Tuesday's preliminary court ruling in the battle over Dr Kai-Fu Lee has been welcomed by Google.
Microsoft's lawsuit against its former executive Kai-Fu Lee and his new employer Google is a "charade" meant to frighten other Redmond workers into staying put, Google and Lee said in court papers filed this week.
Not every big name in search is going to Google.
In its fight with Microsoft over an executive's defection, Google has enlisted attorneys from a small but high-powered law firm.
Microsoft says it found a potentially important document in its case against its former executive Kai-Fu Lee and Google in the "recycle bin" of one of Lee's computers.
The search giant is on a hiring tear. In its most recent quarter, which ended Sept. 30, Google added 800 employees, bringing its global work force to 4,989. That's more than triple the total from just two years ago.

Machines that listen and talk like humans are becoming a reality, researchers and tech executives say.
