Elon Musk Depicted as Liar, Visionary as Tesla Tweet Trial Begins

A Tesla car is parked in a lot across the street from a federal courthouse in San Francisco, Wednesday, Jan. 18, 2023. Elon Musk was depicted Wednesday as either a liar who callously jeopardized the savings of"regular people" or a well-intentioned visionary as attorneys delivered opening statements at a trial focused on a Tesla buyout that never happened.SAN FRANCISCO — .

Nicholas Porritt, a lawyer representing Glen Littleton and other Tesla shareholders in the class-action case, promptly vilified Musk as he addressed jurors. “He didn’t plan to tweet this,” Spiro said of Musk’s Aug. 7, 2018, statement at the heart of the trial. “It was a split-second decision” aimed at being as transparent as possible about the discussions with the Saudi fund about a potential deal.

During cross-examination, a lawyer for Tesla’s board of directors repeatedly questioned whether Littleton had legitimate reason to believe a buyout was inevitable, but the investor remained steadfast even while seeming confused at times.
