Elon Musk loses century long lawsuit against Ultraman, insists he will appeal due to 'calendar trap'
According to Beating Monitoring, a nine member jury in Oakland Federal Court, California, unanimously ruled that Elon Musk lost the lawsuit against OpenAI and Sam Altman because he sued too late. The presiding judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers immediately dismissed all of Musk's claims in court. Due to missing the three-year deadline, Musk's carefully prepared core cards such as "violating charitable trusts" and "executive unjust enrichment" did not even get a chance to be brought to trial. An OpenAI spokesperson described the verdict as a "great victory" outside the courtroom, and its legal representative bluntly stated that Musk's accusations are "completely untrue and baseless. Musk immediately launched a fierce attack on the X platform, dismissing the verdict as a 'technical trick on the calendar'. He insists that there is no doubt that Ultraman and CEO Greg Brockman did indeed make a fortune by "stealing charitable organizations". His lawyer, Marc Toberoff, gave the strongest statement outside the courtroom: "There's only one word - appeal. This war is not over yet." He reiterated the core of the lawsuit: no one should be allowed to raise millions of dollars under the guise of public charity and turn it into a for-profit enterprise when the time is right, allowing executives to enrich themselves. If they get away with it this time, the defense line of the charity organization will be completely destroyed. Although Musk is determined not to give up, several senior appeal lawyers have pointed out that it is extremely difficult for the appellate court to overturn the jury's time limit determination. The legal battle between OpenAI's transformation compliance and Musk's face will be a long tug of war in the Ninth Circuit Court. [Original link]
