  • Uber may owe Google $128 million related to arbitration demands against Uber's former VP of Engineering Anthony Levandowski.
  • The awards stem from Google v. Levandowski & Ron, and Google v. Levandowski. These two cases are separate from, but related to, the Uber vs. Waymo case that kept both companies in the spotlight last spring.
  • The $128 million awards, issued on March 26, were disclosed Thursday in Uber's S-1 filing to go public. 
  • Uber could be held liable for the awards granted against Levandowski and his co-defendant Lior Ron because the company previously agreed to cover the pair's legal fees.

An earlier version of this story had an incorrect number, $227 million, in the headline. It has since been updated.

One year after settling the blockbuster Uber vs. Waymo lawsuit, Uber may be on the hook for another $128 million to Google stemming from two separate but related legal issues, according to a disclosure in Uber's S-1 filing to go public.
