Elon Musk is set to be questioned under oath about his 2022 acquisition of Twitter Inc. in an investor lawsuit alleging that his on-again off-again move to purchase the social media platform was a ruse to lower its stock price.

After attorneys for the world’s richest person initially balked at making him appear in person for a deposition, Musk has agreed to meet with lawyers for the investors on April 3 in Washington, DC, according to a court filing submitted Friday by lawyers on both sides.
