Judge Orders Elon Musk to Disclose SpaceX and Tesla Emails in Apple Antitrust Suit

A US district judge has rejected xAI's attempt to withhold Elon Musk's Tesla and SpaceX emails in his lawsuit against Apple and OpenAI.

A federal judge has ordered Elon Musk to turn over emails from Tesla and SpaceX as part of the discovery process in his lawsuit against Apple and OpenAI. Musk filed the suit alleging anticompetitive collusion after Grok's App Store rankings fell behind OpenAI's integrated services.

While lawyers for xAI argued that Tesla and SpaceX documents were outside the scope of custody, the court sided with OpenAI's request. The discovery process will now search these corporate communications for materials relevant to the ongoing antitrust legal battle.
