The court battle between Elon Musk and Twitter officially began today with a win for Twitter. Today’s pre-trial hearing set Musk’s counsel against Twitter’s to answer a relatively simple question: When should the actual trial begin?
Chancellor Kathaleen McCormick of the Delaware Court of Chancery ruled that the trial should begin in October over a five-day period. Musk’s counsel attempted to argue that expediting the trial would be detrimental to Musk’s case and asked for a trial date to be set in February 2023.
