Amazon is suing a Washington state agency to prevent the release of some company materials to The Washington Post, the newspaper owned by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. The lawsuit, filed in King County Superior Court, seeks to block the release of documents containing 'trade secrets' about Project Kuiper, Amazon's satellite internet initiative. The Washington State Department of Labor & Industries collected the files during investigations of a Project Kuiper facility. The Post requested the documents through a public records request. Amazon argues it's not seeking to prevent the disclosure of all documents but sensitive personal information and proprietary records.

A judge ruled in favor of Amazon in July. At the time, the agency had reportedly planned to appeal the decision.A representative for the agency did not respond to a request for comment on Thursday about Amazon’s recent lawsuit.
