Musk's X Corp and SpaceXAI resolve antitrust lawsuit against Apple

Musk's X Corp and SpaceXAI resolve antitrust lawsuit against Apple - International - 2 min read Musk's X Corp and SpaceXAI resolve antitrust lawsuit against Apple TECH-ANTITRUST-X-Musk's X Corp and SpaceXAI resolve antitrust lawsuit against Apple Elon Musk's X Corp and SpaceXAI said on Monday they have resolved their claims against Apple in a lawsuit that alleged the iPhone maker conspired with OpenAI to unlawfully monopolize markets for smartphones and generative AI chatbots. In a court filing, X and SpaceXAI, a division of SpaceX, moved to dismiss the claims in a lawsuit they brought against Apple and OpenAI last year. The filing did not explain the reasons for dismissal or say whether a settlement had been reached. The resolution ends a high-profile legal battle between Musk and one of the world's most valuable companies over control of the fast-growing AI chatbot market, though the claims against OpenAI will continue. X and SpaceXAI said they will continue to pursue claims against OpenAI, which is also a defendant in the lawsuit. Musk's companies did not immediately respond to requests for comment, and neither did Apple and OpenAI. The lawsuit alleged that Apple and OpenAI "locked up markets to maintain their monopolies and prevent innovators like X and xAI from competing." A judge ruled in November that the case could move forward, in a preliminary victory for Musk. OpenAI in a court filing accused Musk of waging "a campaign of lawfare" against it.

Delhi HC questions urgency of plea claiming people still trapped under Satya Niketan debris

Delhi HC on plea alleging people still trapped under Satya Niketan building debris The Delhi High Court on Monday took exception to a plea alleging that people could still be trapped underneath the debris of the Satya Niketan building that collapsed on September 6 leading to the death of seven people. The plea was mentioned for urgent listing before a bench of Chief Justice (CJ) Devendra Kumar Upadhyaya and Justice Tejas Karia. The plea claimed that the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) demolished a building adjoining the collapsed Satya Niketan building without clearing the debris, and that there may be people still trapped inside. However, the Court asked the petitioner's counsel what the urgency was and also demanded what the source of his information was. "What is your source of information that there are people below the debris? The Court said that the authorities must have conducted some technical audit before demolishing the adjoining building. CJ Upadhyaya told the petitioner to file the plea, adding that it will be auto-listed. "They must have conducted some type of technical audit before deciding to demolish.

NCLT rejects Jet Airways' liquidator plea seeking Rs 500cr from Boeing

NCLT rejects Jet Airways' liquidator plea seeking Rs 500cr from Boeing - Litigation - 3 min read NCLT rejects Jet Airways' liquidator plea seeking Rs 500cr from Boeing New Delhi, The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) has dismissed the plea of grounded air carrier Jet Airways' liquidator seeking a refund of Rs 500 crore from global aerospace manufacturer Boeing, observing that the matter involves a contractual dispute. A two-member Mumbai bench of NCLT said there was a contractual dispute over the pre-delivery/advance payments, requiring detailed adjudication and evidence, and therefore could not be decided by the tribunal under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). "The disputed questions of fact and law are required to be tested and determined by a full-fledged trial, and the Tribunal's jurisdiction under Section 60(5) of the IBC is circumscribed and restricted to issues arising out of the insolvency process," it said. "Therefore, whether the Respondent Boeing Company was justified in suspending the Agreement, forfeiting the Advance Payments and setting of or adjusting it or filing of its claim before the Resolution Professional are the questions which are required to be adjudicated by the Competent Court of jurisdiction," said NCLT. These questions require "evaluation of agreements between the parties, leading of evidence by the Parties and a full-fledged Trial." observed a bench comprising Prabhat Kumar and Sushil Mahadeorao Kochey. Jet Airways, which is under the liquidation process from November 26, 2024, had entered into agreements with Boeing in 2013 for purchase of two aircraft 737-8 and 787-9 aircraft and paid USD 92.13 million as advance/pre-delivery payments. However, Boeing suspended the agreements in May 2019 over payment delays, months before Jet went into the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) in June…
