Hey everybody, we're out of nowhere here, and today we're discussing some news about

the SEC and Elon Musk.

We've also got another SEC filing from Tesla, some news on North American charging

and this is basically the SEC's counterargument of that, asking the court to compel the testimony.

So, that's it, they're just seeking a court order, characterizing this as a lawsuit is pretty

extremely misleading, and Bloomberg seems to agree, although they have kept the same hyperlink,
