The news came from a court filing made public on Thursday, last week about the latest in ongoing legal disputes between the billionaire and the social network.

“This game of ‘hide the ball’ must end,” the company said in the court filing.
Mr Musk did not immediately respond to a request for comment
It also said it had requested that Mr Musk’s attorneys produce their communications with federal authorities months ago, but they had not done so.
