"...The Wisconsin Attorney General sued Friday to stop Musk’s giveaways for clearly violating anti-bribery laws, but an appellate court denied the request Saturday to stop the scheme. Then on Sunday, shortly before Musk took the stage in Green Bay, the state Supreme Court denied a request to hear the case." Via Gizmodo.com
