Remember how Tesla sued Fisker Automotive for stealing inside information and then running out to design and produce their own, competitive electric car? AutoblogGreen reports that a hearing took place on Wednesday that granted Fisker its arbitration request.

According to the report, court documents revealed that the deal between Tesla and Fisker had a clause requiring the arbitration of any disagreements in a specific court. "It appears that Tesla Motors went outside those terms by suing Fisker in a different court than was initially agreed upon. Not surprisingly, Henrik Fisker is extremely pleased with this outcome." Either way, let's hope they get this thing settled so both companies can sell us cool-looking electric cars; the more, the merrier, as they say.
