Twitter sued Elon Musk: Will he buy the company?
Twitter filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk on Tuesday, saying he refused to buy the company. The social media giant’s purposes are to enable Musk to fulfil his obligations and make him complete the deal. The lawsuit was filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery.
The company agreed with Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, which has deep connections to the Delaware Court of Chancery. Since the deal deadline is October 24, Twitter wants the case to be concluded before this date.
If we go back a bit, the $44 billion deal was announced on April 25 between Twitter and Elon Musk.
