How to Attend the Altman vs. Musk Trial
This is a bunch of questions for lawyers or for journalists or for people who have been to this kind of events: next week starts the Musk vs Altman trial. The trial is in Oakland. The court schedule says that the jury selection starts at 8:00 am on Monday and after that the trial is on Thursday at 8:00 am. My questions are:
1. What time do I have to line-up so I can get a chance to enter the court-room?
2. Is it allowed to bring water and snacks in the court room?
3. Is the jury selection on Monday open to the public and if so, is it any interesting? During jury selection will they send the assistant lawyers or senior ones? Will Musk and Altman be present during the jury selection (I guess not).
4. Is photography allowed (I guess not). If not, can I bring a camera and not use it? Is photography in the hallways of the court allowed? Is photography in the garage allowed?
5. When the jury decides who pays whom, will money change hands or will the decision be immediately appealed? If so, will it go to a circuit court or the superior court in DC (apologies about my illiteracy, I am computer scientist from Europe and I don't know much if anything about law).
6. Do you have any advise (like don't go) to the general kibitzer like me?
These are serious questions, if you share them in your professional network, you will help me not embarrass myself and look uncool next week, thank you!

I wish I had money for gambling, but what would your bet would be? Also, the trial will probably affect the option prices of Tesla and Nvidia, although I am not sure how deeply the investors are following...
