Telsa drops California lawsuit over coronavirus shutdowns
Tesla on Wednesday dropped a lawsuit it filed earlier in the month against California’s Alameda County that claimed its mandated coronavirus shutdowns go against state policy, according to Reuters.
The electric carmaker, fueled by Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk, had been pushing to reopen the factory after local health officials shuttered business to curb the spread of the virus.
Musk had also taken to Twitter to threaten to move the company to Texas or Nevada.
