Jury rules Elon Musk's lawsuit against Sam Altman was filed after statute of limitations expired

Elon Musk lost his case against Sam Altman and OpenAI. The jury found that Musk had filed his lawsuit after the statute of limitations had run out.

Ostensibly, the case concerned whether OpenAI's conversion from a nonprofit to a for-profit entity violated a charitable trust established by Musk's donations to OpenAI Foundation. The case involved allegations that Microsoft aided and abetted the transition.

The courtroom proceedings involved disruptions, including a woman called before the judge for taking photos and a man ejected for recording. Protesters appeared outside the courthouse daily, including one holding an "Elon Sucks" sign near the Cybertruck.
