Uber-Waymo trial delayed as US judge raises prospect of cover-up


Uber has denied using any of Waymo's trade secrets.

SAN FRANCISCO: Uber Technologies Inc withheld evidence in a lawsuit filed by Alphabet Inc's Waymo, a US judge said on Tuesday, delaying a trial to give Waymo time to review a letter alleging that Uber trained employees to steal trade secrets and hide their tracks. 

The multibillion-dollar case, in which Waymo has accused Uber of stealing confidential information about its self-driving car designs, has hobbled Uber's autonomous vehicle ambitions. It is the highest-stakes legal challenge on a lengthy list of litigation that Uber's chief executive, Dara Khosrowshahi, inherited when he joined the company in August.
