Uber co-founder, former CEO and current board member Travis Kalanick fired back at Benchmark Capital in legal documents filed Thursday, arguing that the venture capital firm’s lawsuit was initiated “as part of its public and personal attack” on him.

The legal filing, first spotted by Axios, also posits that Benchmark’s claims are subject to mandatory arbitration, and that the Delaware Chancery Court, where the complaint was filed, doesn’t have the jurisdiction to settle them.
