UPDATE: Apple decides to settle legal case with the battery maker.
Apple has agreed to settle a case brought over claims it poached staff from a firm that makes batteries for electric cars, court documents show.
The iPhone-maker was accused of targeting engineers from A123 as it sought to build a large-scale battery unit.
The agreement in principle was disclosed in the papers filed by the battery-maker, which is based in Waltham, Massachusetts.
A123 claimed that, in about June 2014, Apple began aggressively poaching its engineers who were leading some of the company's most critical projects. Apple denied the claims.
