X and xAI Lose Source Code Demand
In a decision signed by U.S. Magistrate Judge Hal R. Ray Jr., the court denied X and xAI's request to compel OpenAI to produce its source code during discovery in their antitrust suit against Apple and OpenAI. The judge found OpenAI's code neither relevant to the antitrust claims nor proportional under Federal Rule 26, and criticized plaintiffs' broad discovery tactics and over 135 docket entries. The ruling requires plaintiffs to seek less intrusive technical evidence while preserving OpenAI's proprietary confidentiality.
