Plain and simple he left and talked bad about Ty
Was forced to be Ty's wet nurse when his job description was entirely different.

I don't give three ****s what everybody thinks about Coach....reality is that this scumbag stole the hard work of others with the intention of turning around and screwing them with it.
....I am sure that @StandOnIt was going to post this soon....must be busy.
Gabehart doesn’t strike me as someone trying to steal or misappropriate secrets for financial gain (sell them to a team) or for competitive advantage (nothing really translates to Chevys), BUT his actions were stupid no matter the motivation.
NOTE TO ALL: When you work for a company, you cannot take the company info, in any form. No transfers of data to any device, no photocopies and no photos of material taken to your personal phone. It all counts as company property!
ALSO…while the judge ruled that his noncompete was managed by JGR properly, they likely didn’t provide proper coordination on his remaining salary and health care benefits. Gabehart will have to sue for those, and should. Companies have to follow protocols on those things, and could be held libel for damages.
Here is the short answer version.
Gabehart will have to pay a fine, none of the other teams will be drug into court by the preacher trying to make a federal case out of it. Gabehart continues doing what he is doing for Spire.

So are they just throwing out the whole separation, but not termination for several months without compensation or benefits?
I believe Gabehart has to sue to try to get the money.

Its nice to see they still decide which illegal activities they want to punish and which they don't.
Got to feed the lawyers.

Gabehart is a very smart guy. He absolutely knew what he was doing. He was overinflated, and didn't like it when he reached for too much. Probably said something about the owners grandson in the process. Bad move. That is BS that nothing translates to Chevys and/or Fords. No question an engineer can interpret set up philosophy and translate it to their particular make.
Love the verb conjugation: drag, drug, will be drug . . .
