Elon Musk wants time to prepare for a trial over his contentious withdrawal from an agreement to buy Twitter for $44 billion, according to a filing in a Delaware chancery court by his attorneys on Friday.

Musk’s team says the trial should wait until next year, after Twitter had requested expedited treatment and a hearing as early as this September.

In their filing, an opposition to a motion filed earlier by Twitter, Musk’s attorneys alleged the company made a “sudden request for warp speed after two months of foot-dragging and obfuscation,” and said this was Twitter’s “latest tactic to shroud the truth about spam accounts.”

I imagine Elon has a pretty good legal team with his money.

I also hope and think they have pissed him off enough that enough data and evidence can be lined up to give some well deserving Twitter executives and employees some jail time.    Especially and if the SEC does its job.
