Corrected: Delaware judge says Tesla board must face trial over Musk’s mega-pay package

By Tom Hals WILMINGTON, Del. (Reuters) - (This story corrects transposed letters in headline - Tesla instead of Telsa) A Delaware judge ruled on Friday that Tesla Inc's board of directors must defend at a trial Chief Executive Elon Musk's multibillion dollar pay package, which a shareholder lawsuit said unjustly enriched the head of the electric vehicle company. Tesla estimated the 2018 compensation package was worth $2.6 billion when it received stockholder approval in March 2018, although stock analysts at the time said it could be worth up to $70 billion if the company - which has yet to post an annual profit - grew quickly.
