    On February 10th, a federal judge ordered Musk to cooperate in the SEC’s investigation, asserting that if a date and location for the interview couldn’t be agreed upon between the parties within a week then the decision would be made for them. That testimony has yet to take place

    So tired of all these assholes never seeing any consequences for simple shit normal people would never get away with.

      I’d love it if courts had the power to seriously enforce shit like this. Fail to meet a deadline that’s been agreed upon by all parties? Okay, then officers will arrest you and put you in jail until you do.

      That’s just my immediate, angry reaction, though. It doesn’t solve the core problem, which is that rich people are above the law.

        It was my understand that’s exactly what they could do, and do. But yeah, rich people don’t apply.
