He signed a contract waiving due diligence, agreeing to buy a company at a frankly ludicrous valuation compared to their stock price and then tried to back out saying they wouldn’t let him do due diligence.

Musk has in the last been officially sanctioned by the government for disobeying a direct order to...run things by Legal before putting them on Twitter.

Tesla hasn't had General Counsel since 2019.

LOL. Musk clearly does a ton of shit without running it by legal first. Not that it's really hurt him.

Maybe, but not the due diligence stuff which is what I was referring to.
