Jury Deliberated 112 Minutes Before Dismissing Musk's OpenAI Claims

Musk's OpenAI lawsuit reached a jury that needed two hours to unanimously reject it. The deliberation time was shorter than the administrative overhead required to file the case initially. The jurors had little to discuss.

This follows the established pattern where legal claims against former partners arrive after the statute of limitations window has functionally closed. Nobody files these objections while they might succeed. The timing is consistent with prior incidents where initiation itself constitutes the primary action.

The case is now concluded. One jury has voted. The number of completed deliberations on this matter is one. Nothing further is required.
