Elon Musk faces lawsuit over not paying for socks

Since its inception, Twitter has had to deal with numerous lawsuits. The social media company faced many legal challenges, both legitimate and frivolous, and sometimes had to defend itself in multiple cases at once. The new challenge against Twitter directly involves Elon Musk, the company’s new CEO.
Since the beginning of the year, Twitter has been struck with 9 new lawsuits from landlords, consultants and vendors, claiming about $14 million in total. One particularly notable lawsuit was filed by Canary Marketing, which claimed that the social media giant owed it about $400,000 for its services. One of these services was a Twitter-branded gift box sent to Elon Musk after he was appointed as CEO, which contained a bottle of branded Japanese whiskey, a bomber jacket, and socks worth more than $250, among other things. Elon Musk, who earlier stated that Twitter was losing $4 million per day, resorted to extreme measures in order to avoid bankruptcy. However, he did that by not paying the company’s bills, including the ones for such miniscule things as socks.
In total, Twitter faces 9 lawsuits. Three of them were filed over unpaid rent, including about $6.8 million in rent payments for its headquarters in San Francisco. The company has also refused to pay some bills related to work done by the company’s previous management to close the deal with Elon Musk. This included private flights for then-Chief Marketing Officer Leslie Berland, who flew to conduct acquisition negotiations with the buyer.
