Apple has filed to drop its lawsuit against Nuvia co-founder Gerrard Williams III, one that accused the former chip architect of a breach of contract and poaching employees.
The request was filed in state court in San Jose, California earlier in the week, according to Bloomberg, however the filing doesn’t say why it was dropped at all. Apple didn’t respond to a requests for comment on Friday over the filing.
The lawsuit originally alleged that Williams had used his years of access to Apple’s information to start Nuvia, in a field he worked on at Apple. At the time, the iPhone maker’s filing said that “by 2018, Williams had started his new venture on Apple’s dime.”
