Musk firms exit Apple case, retain OpenAI claims

A US federal judge has ordered Elon Musk's X Corp and SpaceXAI to disclose any agreement with Apple related to their resolution of antitrust claims against the tech giant, while the companies continue with the same lawsuit against OpenAI. Judge Mark Pittman of the US District Court for the Northern District of Texas directed X and SpaceXAI to provide the court with any agreement or combination of agreements with Apple relating to the resolution, following their September 14 motion to dismiss their claims against Apple with prejudice.

OpenAI, which is not involved in the Apple resolution, asked the court to compel disclosure on the grounds that the agreement could affect its defense and the damages sought by Musk's companies. The court has already granted the request to dismiss Apple, while leaving the litigation against OpenAI intact.
