Sorry for broken english but I need to contextualize a little bit.
I'm a law student here in Brazil (last semester of university) and the thing is, when you sue a company, the legal representative of the company is normally the owner or CEO when the company is situated within the country, or another appointed worker. What happened was, when Elon closed the brazillian offices of Twitter, they let go of the person that was in charge (as legal representantive of the company), they had and still have a lawyer present in the Case (the subpoena the Supreme Court posted on Twitter was first seen by their lawyer, who signaled being aware of it). So it's not as simple as just hiring another lawyer, he will have to hire someone that is willing to be Legal representantive of this shitshow that we are watching

This is a classic โ€œsorry my English is badโ€ post. You are more articulate than most native English speakers.

Thereโ€™s also no accent when you write. Iโ€™ve met people who can write perfect English but have an extremely hard to understand accent because most of their practice is writing.

And also the intonation of the sentences and how words blend with each other. I know.
