DMV against Tesla: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22127992-585743318-california-dmv-accusation-against-tesla-inc-vehicle-manufacturer https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22127992-585743318-c...

Tesla objects that 1. no we didn't; 2. that accusation is too vague; 3. lying to customers is protected Free Speech!; 4. it was truthful and non-misleading anyway; 5. we want a jury trial; 6. the DMV should have stopped us earlier; 7. the accusation is too vague (again); 8. the accusation is too vague (again!); 9. too late (statute of limitations)
