Professor Billionaire David Cheriton who teaches at Stanford University made his fortune thanks to an early investment in Google. In December 2015 his firm OptumSoft lost the first phase of a legal battle against Arista Networks a computer networking firm he had founded with longtime business partner billionaire Andreas von Bechtolsheim.
In an unusual move Cheriton sued Arista shortly after its IPO in June 2014 claiming it had violated the terms of a licensing agreement. A second trial over trade-secret allegations is scheduled for April 2016. Cheriton resigned from Arista's board in March 2014 and has been unloading his stock; he still owns nearly 13% through a trust for his children.
