Twitter is suing Musk to force him to go forward with his acquisition of the company. However, Musk has argued that he is entitled to drop the deal because the company hasn’t given him enough information to figure out if its estimates about the number of spam bots on the platform are accurate. [Musk’s filing mentions]( a May 6 meeting he had with Twitter’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer where they reviewed how the company estimates how many bots are on the platform. Musk complained that the process was based on human reviewers looking at a small percentage of accounts and was much less thorough than he had expected. Twitter, on the other hand, claims that Musk wasn’t genuinely interested in finding out about bots but rather sent a series of escalating requests that the firm could not meet. The court will now hold a hearing Tuesday to address Twitter’s request for an expedited trial.
