The 165-page document just made public by the Delaware Court of Chancery is an argument made by Musk's lawyers that his latest change of heart is actually all the fault of the social networking site.

The basics of the story are familiar to you. Musk bought a lot of the micro-blogging site's stock. Musk will take a seat on the company's board, but will not attempt to buy the company. After changing his mind, he lined up the necessary financing using some of his shares in Musk's company.
