Canary Marketing’s (PPAI 278382, D3) lawsuit against the Elon Musk-owned social media company Twitter has come to an end. The distributor has officially dismissed the lawsuit it originally filed over alleged unpaid invoices, according to the county of San Francisco.
- The lawsuit alleged that Twitter had owed Canary more than $390,000 in unpaid invoice orders, including $6,783 for a “swag gift box” for Musk.
- According to Lauren Borelli, a vice president at Canary, the promo company delivered more than $10 million of Twitter-branded products between 2013 and 2022.
- The distributor alleged that Twitter stopped paying invoices around the time that Musk bought the company.
Canary’s motion to dismiss the suit was filed in late March.
- The court filing, which was submitted and signed by Canary’s attorney, Mark V. Isola, officially dismisses the lawsuit against Twitter.
- In the filing, the action is dismissed “with prejudice,” which means the case cannot be refiled on the same claims.
A lawsuit can be dismissed for multiple reasons in a civil case.
Cadi Stephenson, a partner at Canary, told PPAI Media that the company has no comment, as advised by the firm’s attorney.
