A federal judge ruled that X (formerly Twitter) must face a lawsuit for allegedly failing to pay promised bonuses to staff following its acquisition by Elon Musk.
The lawsuit, seeking class action status, was filed by a former senior director of compensation at X.
The judge found the case plausible, stating that California law applies regarding the enforceability of the contract. (Trending: Trans Athlete Breaks College Record After Joining Women’s Team)
“Twitter’s offer to pay him a bonus in return became a binding contract under California law,” US District Judge Vince Chhabria said.
Despite X’s arguments, the judge allowed the case to proceed.
