Entrepreneur and CEO of Twitter, Elon Musk, is again in legal trouble.
As revealed by the magazine fortune, Musk was sued by the owner of the building they rent for their corporate offices. The reason for the legal complaint before the courts is one that would never be expected: You have not paid your business rent since last November 2022.
According to the lawsuit document, the company that owns the property, located at 650 California Street, has not received from Elon the total amount of $136,260 dollars, corresponding to the month of November, which have not been paid.
The owner of this building, which actually isn’t even Twitter’s San Francisco headquarters, sent a notice to the company from the December 16 informing him that they would be in default if he did not pay within the next five days.
Said payment never arrived, so the landlord of the building Columbia REIT 650 California LLC, has initiated the legal process against Musk, also seeking the payment of damages for the full back rent, as well as attorneys’ fees and other expenses.
The current lease agreement between both entities, and which ended up being absorbed by Musk when he bought the company, marks a mandatory rental period of seven years from 2017.
At the moment, Twitter has not officially stated on this case.
