Elon Musk's OpenAI lawsuit dismissed on statute of limitations grounds; jury reaches unanimous verdict

A federal jury in Northern California found Elon Musk filed his OpenAI lawsuit too late.

The judge dismissed claims including breach of charitable trust and unjust enrichment, along with related claims against Microsoft.

The ruling ends Musk’s current case on statute-of-limitations grounds without addressing the merits.

Musk may still appeal, potentially sending the timing dispute to the Ninth Circuit.
