A successful legal bid by a non-profit organization now sees them seeking approval from a California federal judge for more than $300,000 in attorney fees. The organization, which takes on the responsibility of countering hate speech, has recently triumphed in a case against entrepreneur Elon Musk and social media firm X Corp.
The case involved an article that was reportedly defamatory towards Musk and X Corp., to which both parties responded with claims against the non-profit organization. However, the latter emerged victorious in this legal endeavor, which has led them to seek these substantial legal costs.
The non-profit aims to recover the costs incurred during their successful legal engagement with Musk and X Corp, and hopeful of getting the nod from the involved judge.
