Apple and OpenAI exchange new accusations in an ongoing trade-secrets lawsuit, with each side saying the other is trying to introduce improper material beyond what court rules allow. Apple says OpenAI went beyond the permitted scope in its filing, while OpenAI earlier accused Apple of improperly adding new evidence.
Reporting across outlets describes the dispute as procedural rather than a merits ruling. Apple’s latest protest centers on OpenAI’s response and Apple’s claim that OpenAI should not rely on additional arguments or materials outside the court’s framework. AppleInsider adds detail that OpenAI also challenges Apple’s inclusion of a briefing and expert testimony addressing OpenAI’s argument that Apple did not adequately protect its trade secrets. The case has not reached trial, and the parties continue to contest deadlines and the significance of further delays, while maintaining their broader positions.
No source describes a judge’s decision in response to these latest filings, but all characterize the back-and-forth as a continuation of motions and legal arguments as the lawsuit progresses.
