Twitter v Elon Musk: what happens next in the takeover saga?

The Delaware trial that the social media firm brought is still due to proceed despite Musk's latest U-turn

The judge presiding over the Twitter v Elon Musk trial in Delaware says the case will go ahead on 17 October because neither side has asked for a postponement yet.

This is despite the Tesla chief executive offering this week to buy the business on the terms agreed in April at the $44bn (39bn) price, performing a U-turn on his July decision to walk away.
