A judge in Delaware is considering a trial challenging Elon Musk's $56 billion pay at Tesla.
The trial is centered around whether a single material misleading disclosure to shareholders would void the compensation plan, which the judge referred to as "a kill shot."
The lawsuit was filed in 2018 by Tesla investor Richard Tornetta, who argued that the pay plan unjustly enriched Musk and should be voided.
The judge has asked both sides for additional briefing and a ruling is expected in the coming months.
