IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS

MARSHALL DIVISION

ROBERT BOSCH LLC. §

§ Plaintiff, § § v. §

CASE No. 2:23-CV-00038-JRG-RSP § WESTPORT FUEL SYSTEMS §

CANADA, INC., §

§ Defendant. §

ORDER

Westport Fuel Systems Canada, Inc. (“Westport”) previously filed its Motion for Summary Judgement Regarding Judicial Estoppel (the “Motion”). (Dkt. No. 177.) Magistrate Judge Payne entered a Report and Recommendation (Dkt. No. 315), recommending denial of the Motion. . Westport has now filed Objections. (Dkt. No. 339.)

After conducting a de novo review of the briefing on the Motion, the Report and Recommendation, and the briefing on Westport’s Objections, the Court agrees with the reasoning provided within the Report and Recommendation. Consequently, the Court OVERRULES Westport’s Objections and ADOPTS the Report and Recommendation and orders that the Motion (Dkt. No. 177) is DENIED.

So ORDERED and SIGNED this 11th day of March, 2026.
