Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, attempted to challenge a settlement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that requires a lawyer to examine his social media posts, but the US Supreme Court rejected his appeal earlier this week, according to NBC News.
The denial comes after the federal agency was granted a favorable decision by the second US Circuit Court of Appeals in New York.
The 52-year-old tech mogul claims the SEC illegally placed restrictions on his “Twitter sitter” provision, preventing him from making comments on matters pertaining to Tesla.
After purchasing the social media network in 2022 (which is now known as X), he made this assertion.
