India-based software exporter Infosys Technologies Ltd (INFY: Quote,500209: Quote,INFOSYSTCH: Quote) has won a case filed against it by one of its employees, Jack "Jay" Palmer.

US District Judge Myron Thompson found no basis to support any of the charges filed by Palmer and dismissed the case entirely, writing, "Judgment is entered in favor of defendants Infosys Technologies Limited Incorporated and Infosys Limited and against plaintiff Jack "Jay" Palmer, Jr., with plaintiff Palmer taking nothing by his complaint."

Judge Thompson further ordered costs against Palmer.

In its statement Infosys said, "Today's decision confirms what we have been saying from the beginning: Mr. Palmer's claims of retaliation were completely unfounded. This is a company built on core values that include leadership by example, integrity and transparency. Those values always have and will continue to shape the way we do business with our clients and, without exception, the way we treat our people. We are pleased to consider this matter officially closed."
