Judge shreds Elon Musk’s bid to end SEC clampdown over Tesla tweet.

A federal judge rejected Elon Musk’s bid to end a 2018 consent decree limiting his ability to freely tweet about Tesla’s business, dealing a blow to the billionaire in his ongoing feud with the SEC, a court ruling revealed on Wednesday.

Musk’s attorneys were attempting to repeal a provision requiring Tesla attorneys to read and approve all of his tweets before they can be posted – arguing the terms infringed on his First Amendment rights and was tantamount to “harassment.’

US District Court Judge Lewis Liman slammed Musk’s argument in a scathing ruling that dismissed his legal team’s motion, noting that the billionaire’s decision to enter into the agreement in 2018 undercut his argument that his rights were being violated.

“[Musk] cannot now complain that this provision violates his First Amendment rights,” the ruling said. “Musk’s argument that the SEC has used the consent decree to harass him and to launch investigations of his speech is likewise meritless and, in this case, particularly ironic.”

US District Court Judge Lewis Liman another SDNY Nazi.
