Bummer of a birthmark, Elon
It looks like the judge in Delaware's Chancery Court is sick and tired of Elon Musk's bullsh%$:
A Delaware Chancery Court judge largely granted Twitter’s request for an expedited trial Tuesday, an early win for the social media company in its court battle against Elon Musk, the world’s richest man.Dear Elon, when you act like a turd in the punch bowl, you should expect to be treated like a turd in the punch bowl.
Chancellor Kathaleen McCormick approved Twitter’s appeal for an early court date, setting a five-day trial in October. Twitter had requested a September date — an effort, lawyers argued, to prevent Musk from causing further damage to the company through his firebrand Twitter account and his legal team’s capacity to request reams of potentially damaging internal documents.
Musk’s team had asked for a February date, allowing seven months to compel data and information from Twitter — a request that McCormick said “underestimates ability of this court to quickly process litigation” and went against precedent.
“The reality is the delay [requested by Musk] threatens irreparable harm to the sellers and to Twitter,” McCormick, who was contending with covid-19, said in a raspy voice. The hearing was held virtually after she tested positive for the coronavirus.
FWIW, I don't expect Musk to be on the hook for the full $40 billion, there will be some sort of settlement in the end, because the deal was structured exactly as he wanted it.
