Summary
Musk wrote on May 13, 2022, that his deal was “temporarily on hold” pending confirmation that bot accounts did “indeed represent less than 5% of users,” as Twitter had claimed. Breyer found there was “substantial evidence of falsity” to Musk’s May 13 claim, which suggested to the public that he had the right to pause the deal. A federal judge on Monday rejected Elon Musk’s bid to void a jury verdict finding that the world’s richest person defrauded Twitter investors by trying to drive down the social media company’s stock price after agreeing to a US$44 billion takeover.
