Here are 6 key points from the article summarized using an unordered list:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; A federal jury in Oakland, California, dismissed Elon Musk&#8217;s lawsuit against OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman, finding that Musk waited too long to file the suit. The verdict upheld a statutory three-year limitations period.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The court did not address the merits of Musk\u2019s claims regarding \u201cbreach of charitable trust\u201d but emphasized the timing issue.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Musk and his legal team plan to appeal the dismissal to the 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The judges expressed skepticism about the likelihood of the appeal being successful, citing substantial evidence to support the jury&#8217;s decision.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The lawsuit was centered on Musk&#8217;s belief that Altman and OpenAI had abandoned its nonprofit charitable mission and pursued for-profit activities, personally enriching themselves.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Despite the dismissal, neither Musk nor his lawyers gave up on their quest to reclaim substantial financial gains, up to $180 billion, as well as to remove leadership from Altman and his associate, Greg Brockman.<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Musk slams Altman trial verdict as a &#8216;technicality,&#8217; vows to appeal https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2026\/05\/18\/musk-altman-openai-trial-verdict.html Publish Date: 2026-05-18&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":216020,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/image.cnbcfm.com\/api\/v1\/image\/108300039-17775631552026-04-30t152841z_346343895_rc2rzkaz6axv_rtrmadp_0_musk-openai-court.jpeg?v=1777563199&w=1920&h=1080","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-216019","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216019"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=216019"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216019\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":216021,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216019\/revisions\/216021"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/216020"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=216019"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=216019"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=216019"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
