Man, I really do not think this trial is going to end well for Musk
@dave I don't think this trial is going to end well for constitutional rights
Why do you think this trial has any bearing on constitutional rights? It's about whether Musk is allowed to walk away from the Twitter deal or not.
@dave Tesla bigwigs seems fair game but subpoenas for private communication between friends seems like overkill
Not with $44 billion on the line it isn't. This is an insane amount of money, Musk's embarrassment at having his personal communications gone through is of limited consequence given what's at stake.
@dave not a lawyer, just don't see why anyone has a right to see that/judge can demand it unless it's a criminal proceeding
That's just how lawsuits work. If there's relevant evidence out there, the courts are usually allowed to demand it. A few precedential cases:
Yep, and it's apparently a district known for resolving cases fast, and if I remember correctly this judge has forced a corporation to complete a merger in a prior lawsuit.
That plus the strong specific performance clause in the offer contract makes me think there's a high likelihood that Musk will be ordered to buy at his original offer price.

Would this be awesome if it became a referendum on shit-ass fake math and sampling methods?
@polarisera @11112011 @dave this would be incredible and I would watch that shit
