5) I look forward to hearing that the court succeeds in enforcing the judgement...

One of the 'truths' I have long believed to be true has been partially disproven by Elon Musk:

A billionaire is a sovereign nation of One, placed above local sovereignty and the local laws within any other nation-state.

And yet, Musk keeps running into consequences for violating the law. Some of the time. Nation-states can sometimes invoke their laws and tell him what to do.

Or tell him 'No'.

The fact that this happens at all - and that we sometimes get to hear about it - tells me that I am at least partially wrong about the sovereignty of the super-wealthy, and that Elon Musk is crap at being a billionaire.

I hear about him being told "no", but rarely that he has done as he was told, or that there have been consequences.
OK, he did buy Twitter (at the promised price IIRC), but what else ?

Here are some court cases currently going on
