Elon Musk Settles $128M Lawsuit with Former Twitter Executives
Elon Musk has settled a $128 million lawsuit with former Twitter executives, including ex-CEO Parag Agrawal, CFO Ned Segal, and top legal counsel Vijaya Gadde. The lawsuit, filed earlier, accused Musk of wrongfully withholding severance payments promised in a contract when he took over the company's rebranding in 2022.
Musk fired the executives in his first action after purchasing Twitter, claiming they were fired for causing an invalid severance. Legal experts noted that internal communications and board records undermined Musk's argument, leading to the settlement to avoid a costly trial.
The settlement marks the end of a long-running dispute and signals Musk's efforts to resolve legal battles and focus on monetizing his ventures.
