Tesla is seeking dismissal of an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission racial discrimination lawsuit, arguing it strings together vague anecdotes of purported behavior that amount to “factual vacuity.”

The filing this month in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California is in addition to Tesla’s request in December to stay the case on grounds the EEOC raced to court and skipped over the mandatory conciliation process because of an “unseemly, toxic interagency competition” with the California Civil Rights Department.
