<p>A federal court judge in Los Angeles set an October 22 trial date in a Friday court filing that rejected Musk’s attempt to dismiss a defamation lawsuit filed by British diver Vernon Unsworth.</p>
<p>Musk called Mr Unsworth a “pedo” in a July 15 post on his Twitter account after Mr Unsworth dismissed Musk’s attempts to help rescue the football players as a “PR stunt”.</p>

<p>Musk contended his insult was protected from legal action but the judge overseeing the case disagreed.</p>
