Elon Musk won dismissal of a lawsuit claiming he refused to pay at least $500-million of severance to thousands of Twitter employees he fired in mass layoffs after buying the social media company now known as X.
The case is one of many accusing Musk of reneging on promises to former Twitter employees, including former Chief Executive Parag Agrawal, and vendors after buying the company for $44-billion in October 2022. An outside spokeswoman for Sanford Heisler Sharp, which represents the former employees, said the law firm was disappointed and considering its legal options. Lawyers for Musk and X did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
