Elon Musk's Bid to Avoid SEC Twitter Settlement Rejected By Appeals Court

Elon Musk cannot overturn a settlement requiring his Tesla-related tweets be approved by an attorney before posting.
Musk argued the settlement violated his First Amendment rights, but the court found no evidence to support his claims.
The SEC investigated three of Musk's tweets since 2018 that plausibly violated the settlement terms, according to the court.
Musk and Tesla each paid $20 million in fines as part of the 2018 settlement with the SEC over Musk's false "funding secured" tweet.
The settlement also required Musk to step down as Tesla chairman, but Musk is allowed to tweet freely on any topic except certain events or Tesla financial milestones.
