Washington, December 4 (RHC)-- In the U.S., a judge from the state of Delaware has reaffirmed her decision to void a $56 billion compensation package for Tesla CEO Elon Musk. 

On Monday, Judge Kathaleen McCormick upheld her January ruling, which noted the astronomical 2018 pay package was the largest ever for a publicly traded corporation. 

Elon Musk is already the richest person in history, with a net worth estimated at more than a third of a trillion dollars. 

Meanwhile, Musk has promised to “delete” the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau when he takes the reins of the so-called Department of Government Efficiency under President Trump next month.

His pledge comes after the CFPB finalized a rule to supervise tech companies which offer digital funds transfers and payment wallet apps.  Those are features Musk is working to add to his social media site X.
