In Twitter vs. Elon Musk, Twitter sees first win in legal case against Elon Musk.
Just in 10 minutes, Delaware’s Court of Chancery has ruled in Twitter’s favor for an expedited trial in the Musk acquisition case, with Musk and Co. given just five days to present their argument as to why Musk should be allowed to pull out of the deal. The case has been scheduled for October.
Musk’s legal team had sought to extend the length of the trial, arguing that it needs more time to review the data required, and that Twitter is seeking to obfuscate its figures on fake and spam accounts by expediting the timeline, which Musk’s team says is the key reason for pulling out of the deal.
Why did Twitter File A Legal Case Against Elon Musk?
Twitter says that Musk’s actions have violated the non-disparagement clause in the takeover agreement, and it seems inevitable that Twitter will eventually also argue that Musk has caused significant monetary harm to the company due to his attacks, which will be difficult for Twitter to fully recover from, whether Musk is forced to pay up or not.
Back in 2019, Musk was sued for defamation after he leveled unfounded claims, via tweet, that a member of a cave rescue team working to save a group of trapped youngsters in Thailand was a ‘pedo guy’. See image below –
Seems like Elon Musk has a history with legal cases.
Anyways, that’t not what matters, when you reach the top, its natural to have enemies.
What’s concerning is the whole scenario! & truth be told, it’s a bit sad. A deal which once seemed to be a positive move for the app’s future, at least to some analysts and supporters. Many viewed Musk as a potential savior for the platform, with his genius to lead Twitter into a new phase of life.
