Question will resolve YES if the court grants the plaintiff's motion by imposing any sanctions on either Musk or his attorney, Alex Spiro. This includes monetary sanctions or any order imposing negative consequences on either of them that comes from the court's ruling on the motion for sanctions, such as permitting a new deposition. Question will resolve NO if the order on the motion linked above does not impose such sanctions.

EDIT made prior to anyone trading on the market: I will resolve YES if the court denies the motion for sanctions but also responds to Spiro's request for pro hac vice status by denying it, since that is one of the things the sanctions motion asks for.

Never heard of this suit before...

Well America is gonna America... everything for a quick buck, lol.

@NiklasBergstrom It's not the strongest defamation suit, but it's not frivolous. And the lawyers involved are fresh off a huge victory in the Alex Jones case, which was also not seen as the strongest case when it was first filed. (And also wound up getting a lot easier for them when the defendants bungled the case.)
