X Corp, formerly known as Twitter, must pay US$1.1mil (RM5.21mil) in legal fees racked up by a group of the social-media platform’s former top executives, a judge ruled.

Lawyers for the group – led by ex-Twitter chief executive officer Parag Agrawal and former top lawyer Vijaya Gadde – Tuesday (Oct 3) persuaded Delaware Chancery Court Judge Kathaleen St. J. McCormick that Twitter violated its duties to cover legal expenses generated by their work for the company.
