Judge upholds Musk's pay package rejection

A US judge on Monday upheld her decision to reject Elon Musk's $55.8 billion compensation package at Tesla, denying an attempt to restore the deal through a shareholder vote. In a court filing, the judge ruled that Tesla's attempt to ratify Musk's compensation package through a shareholder vote could not override her decision striking down the package as excessive and unfair to shareholders. The court also awarded $345 million in attorney fees, significantly less than the $5.6 billion sought by the lawyers of plaintiff/shareholder Richard Tornetta.
