Uber's divided board managed to agree on one thing over the weekend: Expedia's Dara Khosrowshahi should be the company's new CEO. Yet on Monday, the dispute between Uber's former CEO Travis Kalanick and venture capital firm Benchmark showed no signs of abating. In a new court filing, Kalanick accused Benchmark of drawing out its lawsuit only to "publicly slander" his character. As part of the suit, Benchmark wants the court to nullify a June 2016 agreement that created three additional board seats. It also wants the former CEO to be removed from the board and banned from participating in the search for his replacement.
