Federal judge sets April 4 hearing for Elon Musk contempt case

Judge Alison Nathan on Tuesday set a hearing for April 4. It is unclear when she will issue a ruling. Nathan is tasked with weighing the SEC's request that Musk be held in contempt for violating a settlement agreement reached last year, which required he get pre-approval for social media posts about the electric car company. Musk tweeted on February 19 that"Tesla made 0 cars in 2011, but will make around 500k in 2019.

In a court filing, Tesla conceded Musk did not receive pre-approval from anyone on that committee for his February posts, but the company has since claimed that he didn't need it.Musk maintains he has diligently tried to follow the court settlement, and that the SEC's request is a breach of his constitutional right to free speech.The battle between Musk and the SEC goes back to August 2018, when Musk tweeted that he had secured funding to take Tesla private at $420 a share.

What are you gonna do put him jail? Dude loves tunnels he'd be out in a day.

Take em down.

Go get him SEC. He cheated on his wife with Johnny Depp's wife, sneaking into Depp's home at night when the actor was away at work. He then paid someone in Johnny Depp's legal team to withhold crucial evidence that would have prevented Depp's career damage.

Elon Musk framed Johnny Depp.

A DATE IS SET: A Judge will hear arguments on whether or not Elon Musk is in contempt of court next monthMusk's contempt charge is related to a tweet he sent falsely claiming that Tesla would make 500,000 cars in 2019. The public figure was 400,000. lopezlinette I can think of so many people I would rather have our efforts focused on. Like most of the folks running the puppet show in DC. lopezlinette 'That abuse of his powerful 20 million-person Twitter following to spread false material information got Musk kicked off Tesla's board.' Is it true Musk was kicked off the board entirely? I thought he just had to relinquish the chairmanship. lopezlinette Whatever elonmusk tweeted regarding 500K estimate for 2019 was already discussed in the earnings call.
