Buzzfeed broke the news, offering an explanation of the Hyperloop lawsuit: The full claims, as stated in the official document, cover defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, breach of contract, and assault. But it’s the details of the lawsuit that are the most interesting. If the case Bambrogan has laid out proves true, he’s certainly faced a hostile environment in his own company. Here are sections of the case, uncovered by The Verge:
A Literal Hangman’s Noose as a Threat
Investors “Pressured” to Funnel Money Through Pishevar’s VC Firm
Lots of Threats
In short, this Hyperloop lawsuit doesn’t pull any punches: If true, the ostensibly forward-thinking company is falling apart at the seams. Image: Flickr / Luc Van Braekel
