Apple has submitted its response to OpenAI’s attempt to block expedited discovery in its ongoing trade secret lawsuit. Here are the details.
A bit of background
Earlier this month, Apple asked for an expedited discovery process in its lawsuit accusing former employees, OpenAI, and io Products of trade secret misappropriation.
That would include early production of documents and communications, forensic imaging of devices and accounts, and depositions of key witnesses.
Essentially, Apple wants substantive responses to its written discovery within 30 days and an OpenAI corporate deposition within 50 days, with both completed at the outset of the case rather than left to the broader fact-discovery process.
