Texas Federal Judge Recuses from Elon Musk's X Corp. Lawsuit Against Advertisers
Aug 13, 2024, 07:49 PM
Federal Judge Reed O'Connor in Texas has recused himself from an antitrust lawsuit filed by Elon Musk's X Corp. against a group of advertisers. The case alleges that the advertisers were illegally boycotting Musk's social media platform. The recusal follows reports by NPR that Judge O'Connor owned Tesla stock, a company also associated with Musk. The case has been reassigned to Judge James Kinkeade, a George W. Bush appointee. The recusal comes amid concerns of forum-shopping, as none of the parties involved are based in the district where the lawsuit was filed.
