Case overview
What is the Twitter settlement about?
A lawsuit accused Elon Musk of making false and misleading statements about his acquisition of Twitter. On March 20, 2026, a jury agreed in part, finding that Musk violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and that his conduct artificially deflated Twitter's stock price from May 13, 2022, through October 4, 2022. The available resources don't detail Musk's position or defenses in the case.
Importantly, this isn't a traditional settlement with a set fund awaiting court approval, it's a claims process built directly on the jury's verdict. You may be eligible if you sold publicly traded Twitter stock or call options, or purchased Twitter put options, during that window and suffered losses as a result. Musk himself and anyone who previously opted out of the case are not eligible to claim.
To participate, you'll need to file a timely, valid Claim Form along with supporting documentation of your Twitter-related trades, think trade confirmations, broker or bank emails, account statements, or similar records. Claims lacking sufficient documentation risk delays during verification or outright rejection, and those with a high volume of transactions may be asked to submit their trading data electronically.
The claim form asks for your contact details, the specific type of Twitter securities you held or traded, and thorough transaction and holdings information. If applicable, the online form also requests the last four digits of the beneficial owner's Social Security number or taxpayer ID. Note that no Notice Number, Member ID, Claim ID, or lookup tool appears anywhere in the materials reviewed.
