Lawyers who convinced a Delaware judge in January to block Tesla from doing so Elon Musk He will compensate himself with $55.8 billion in Tesla shares, reports A Reuters. The attorneys stated in their filing that they realize the amount represents a terrible hourly wage of exactly $288,888. They added that they are not asking for cash, but rather approximately 29 million Tesla shares.
Musk responded on X (formerly Twitter) that the lawyers want $6 billion
They did nothing but damage Tesla.
According to the filing, 266 million Tesla shares will be returned to the company.
Tornita's lawyers feel this is why the massive representation bill they have already submitted to Tesla is justified. As they wrote, with this solution, they would receive compensation for what they just returned to the company, and Tesla would not have to pay a dime in cash due to legal hassle.
Musk may appeal the case.
