Agrawal had his letter of resignation, citing the change of control, ready to send. But when his Twitter email was cut off, it took him a few minutes to get the document into a Gmail message. By that point, he had already been fired by Musk. “He tried to resign,” Musk said. “But we beat him,” Spiro replied.
After a court previously dismissing the execs' case, a judge ruled Nov 2024 that Agrawal and the other execs can sue Musk for "terminating their roles with the social media company during his acquisition and before they could resign, in order to cheat them of their severance" (Live Mint, 2024).
