In doing so the defendants, including Zoox, allegedly attempted to"steal Tesla's proprietary information and trade secrets to help Zoox leapfrog past years of work needed to develop and run its own warehousing, logistics, and inventory control operations."

Tesla declined to comment beyond what is contained in the brief, and Zoox was not immediately available for comment.
