Judge Allows Musk Lawsuit Against OpenAI To Proceed
A U.S. district judge said on Jan. 7, 2026 that Elon Musk's 2024 lawsuit alleging OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman misled him about converting to a for-profit model will proceed to trial. Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers denied OpenAI's motion to dismiss, citing sufficient circumstantial evidence; a trial is scheduled for March 2026. Musk seeks monetary damages, donated $38 million, and wants Microsoft's OpenAI licensing agreement voided.
