Both sides attended a hearing today with Chancellor Kathaleen McCormick to decide if the trial should be pushed all the way to February next year. However, according to The Verge, Elon\u2019s trial with Twitter will happen in October.<br \/>\nIn case you didn\u2019t know<br \/>\nEarlier this year, Elon decided to buy the social media giant Twitter for $44 billion. Soon after the papers were signed, we started to see some leaks in the boat, as tension grew between Elon and Twitter. As the deal moved closer to completion, some issues arose. For starters, there was the short-lived sexual harassment allegation against Musk. This looked like it would stop the deal in its tracks.<br \/>\nHowever, it didn\u2019t. What really did it was the issue of the number of fake bot Twitter accounts that are on the platform. Elon really wanted to know just how many of those accounts are on the platform, but Twitter didn\u2019t disclose that information. He wanted the number to be below 5% of the roughly 229 million daily users.<br \/>\nElon Musk cited Twitter\u2019s failure to disclose this information as the reason to why he backed out of the deal. On July 8th, the billionaire submitted a document that would terminate the deal. Twitter did not take this break-up well.<br \/>\nThe company then sued Musk to force the deal to go through. Yes, Twitter is trying to force Elon Musk to buy it. It\u2019s not only comical, it\u2019s possible! The company hired some tough lawyers, as did Musk.<br \/>\nSpeaking of Musk\u2019s lawyers, he and his legal team proposed that the trial be pushed all the way to February 2023. Twitter, on the other hand, wants this trial to be over as soon as possible and called for a September trial.<br \/>\nBoth sides spoke with Chancellor Kathaleen McCormick Tuesday to decide whether the trial should happen in September or February.<br \/>\nThe Twitter trial will happen in October<br \/>\nThat leads us to the final decision. During the hearing, it was decided that the trial would happen sometime between both proposed trial dates. The compromise, however, was more in Twitter\u2019s favor, as the date was pushed only one month from its proposed date.<br \/>\nThere was also a compromise with the length of the trial. Twitter originally wanted a swift four-day trial. After the hearing, however, it\u2019s going to last five days. We\u2019re not sure if that was at the behest of Elon\u2019s team.<br \/>\nAn October trial doesn\u2019t give Elon and his team much time to do what they originally planned on doing. Their plan was cut short by five months, so they\u2019ll need to think on their feet.<br \/>\nRegardless of when it takes place, we still don\u2019t know what will happen with this messy trial. Twitter could have a new owner or it could not. At this point, there\u2019s no way of knowing.<br \/>\nThe post Elon Musk&#8217;s Twitter Trial Will Take Place In October appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Elon-Musk-Buys-Twitter-AM-AH.jpg\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1203\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Elon Musk vs. Twitter is an ongoing saga that might come to a close sooner than we all thought.
