The SEC investigation began in 2022. The Commission began investigating Musk’s delay in buying shares from Twitter and announcing this situation late. Musk delivered the documents related to his investment in Twitter 10 days after the legal deadline, and this delay turned out to have earned Musk an extra 156 million dollars. This event led to Twitter shareholders filing a lawsuit against Musk.

Elon Musk planned to testify about the SEC investigation last month. However, Musk could not attend the previous session in San Francisco and then refused to testify despite all SEC’s efforts. The Commission now wants a federal court in San Francisco to force Musk to testify.
