That means Levandowski will likely be compelled to provide the approximately 14,000 documents Waymo alleges Levandowski took from Google before Levandowski left the company, according to the court. Waymo's lawsuit claims Levandowski used those documents to build self-driving technology at his new job at Uber.
In March, Levandowski's lawyers said he wanted to plead the fifth amendment so he would not incriminate himself in the case.
