Robert Bosch GmbH and Volkswagen AG have asked a federal court judge in San Francisco to reject requests from lawyers who represent investors and owners in Europe to release materials it has submitted in the U.S. about its diesel emission cheating.
VW says it has filed more than 20 million pages of records to the U.S. Dept. of Justice, which is pursuing its own criminal investigation into the cheating scandal. It continues to turn over more documents.
VW describes the data request as “blatantly overbroad.” It also notes that similar requests have been rejected in Germany on VW’s argument that releasing the information would jeopardize investigations being carried out by German authorities.
Bosch, which supplies VW with diesel emission control hardware and software, has submitted about 2 million pages of documents about its possible involvement in the cheating. The company also filed a motion to dismiss the California request. Bosch says some material it has submitted contains sensitive competitive data that is protected under foreign privacy laws.
