Lawyers representing billionaire Elon Musk and Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) asked a United States district court judge to toss out a motion to have them sanctioned over alleged conflicts of interest in a $258 billion lawsuit alleging Musk participated in an illegal racketeering scheme related to the Dogecoin (DOGE) cryptocurrency.

In a filing dated July 6, Musk and Tesla’s team responded to the June 25 motion filed by Evan Spencer, a lawyer representing the plaintiffs in the case against Musk.
