As Gizmodo reported in May, Waymo already dropped several of its patent claims after an expert witness it hired reversed his own testimony, saying another one of Uber’s devices, Fuji, wasn’t infringing as he originally believed. Uber, of course, is excited to see any of the myriad claims about its infringement and theft go away, and the company says Waymo’s disappearing patent claims reveal a weak case. Uber has assured the court in statements made under penalty of perjury that it no longer uses and will not use that device, so we have narrowed the issues for trial by dismissing the patent claims as to that device, with the right to re- file suit if needed. We continue to pursue a patent claim against Uber’s current generation device and our trade secret claims,” a Waymo spokesperson said.
But the bottom line is that dropping these claims is part of the natural process this messy lawsuit needs to go through before it goes to trial in October. In addition to its patent infringement claims, Waymo started this suit with more than 1. Uber stole. That list has narrowed to over 7. Waymo to cut it down to 1. You’ll see a lot more claims disappear between now and October, and that doesn’t mean either side is “winning”—it just means no jury can be expected to sit through all of this.
