Lawyers for Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Thursday asked a Delaware court to halt a trial later this month and suggested Twitter is refusing his new $44 billion offer to purchase the social media company.

His lawyers filed a motion to stay the proceedings and remove the trial from Delaware’s Court of Chancery’s calendar that was scheduled to start on Oct. 17.
