https://techcrunch.com/2022/10/06/elon-musk-moves-to-kill-the-upcoming-twitter-trial/ > After Elon Musk agreed to buy Twitter after all, his legal team is now motioning for the court to cancel the upcoming trial with Twitter, slated to begin on October 17. > But, as Judge Kathaleen McCormick pointed out yesterday, the trial cannot be called off until both parties agree. So, the trial is still technically moving forward unless Twitter also motions for a stay. Twitter has not yet lowered its guard, though, because Musk still needs to come up with $44 billion.
