Twitter is being forced to leave its Boulder, Colorado headquarters because it hasn't paid the rent in months, according to a report&nbsp;in the Denver Business Journal.&nbsp;

As reported by TechCrunch, the company moved into the premises in February 2020 and used a letter of credit with a value of about $1 million to pay for the first three months of rent.

The judge issued an order on May 31 for the sheriff to assist in evicting Musk's company within 49 days after the landlord sued Twitter in court last month, according to TechCrunch.

The company has previously faced legal action from a number of other landlords who claim it hasn't been paying rent on its San Francisco headquarters and its King Charles-owned office in London.

Musk allegedly stated in a 4 a.m. conversation&nbsp;that the company would only pay office rent "over his dead body," according to a lawsuit&nbsp;brought by former Twitter workers last month.

As per&nbsp;the lawsuit, Alex Spiro, Musk's lawyer, "loudly opined" that it was unfair for Twitter's landlords to expect it to pay rent since San Francisco was a "shithole."

It appears to be a strategy to assist Twitter save expenses after Musk, as previously reported by Insider, reduced employees by over 90 per cent&nbsp;to save money.

<h2>Twitter suspends accounts belonging to Elon Musk critic Aaron Greenspan</h2>

Twitter, which is controlled by Elon Musk, has suspended two accounts that belong to Aaron Greenspan, a loud opponent of the Tesla CEO, and has removed both his personal account and that of Plainsite, his online database.

Twitter reportedly suspended the handles on Tuesday, according CNBC. At the time of suspension, Plainsite had roughly 24,000 followers compared to about 2,500 followers for Greenspan's personal account.&nbsp;According to CNBC, Greenspan has meticulously&nbsp;followed legal actions taken by or against businesses, mostly in the United States, such as Tesla and Twitter. Both these are companies&nbsp;that Musk owns.

With the help of two friends, Greenspan founded Plainsite in 2011, which gives consumers free access to files from both state and federal courts. He has engaged in legal battles with the wealthy over the years.

No rent, no space: Court orders eviction of Twitter from its Colorado office over non-payment of rent

US-based advisory firm Innisfree M&amp;A Incorporated sued&nbsp;Twitter&nbsp;on Friday in New York State Supreme Court, seeking about $1.9 million for what it says are unpaid bills after it advised the social media company on its acquisition by Elon Musk last year.&nbsp;"As of December 23, 2022,&nbsp;Twitter&nbsp;remains in default of its obligations to Innisfree under the Agreement in an amount of not less than $1,902,788.03," the lawsuit said.&nbsp;Twitter&nbsp;and a lawyer for Innisfree did not immediately respond to request for comment.

Musk in October closed the $44 billion deal announced in April and took&nbsp;Twitter&nbsp;private.

Last month, Britain's Crown Estate, an independent commercial business that manages the property portfolio belonging to the monarchy, said that it had begun court proceedings against&nbsp;Twitter&nbsp;over alleged unpaid rent for its London headquarters.

Advertising spending on&nbsp;Twitter&nbsp;Inc dropped by 71% in December, data from an advertising research firm showed, as top advertisers slashed their spending on the social-media platform after Musk's takeover.

The banks providing $13 billion in financing last year for the Tesla chief executive's acquisition of&nbsp;Twitter&nbsp;abandoned plans to sell the debt to investors because of uncertainty around the social media company's fortunes and losses, Reuters reported last month.

Advisory firm Innisfree sues Musk's Twitter for $1.9 million in unpaid bills

Two women who were laid off from Twitter during the mass firings after Elon Musk took over are suing the platform on the grounds that female employees were disproportionately targeted while making the job cuts. Notably, Musk removed roughly 3,700 employees from the company's workforce and many more later resigned. He faced severe&nbsp;flak for his decision to cut the job force so drastically.

The suit filed on Wednesday in San Francisco federal court says that Twitter laid off 57 per cent of its female workers compared with 47 per cent of men. It further said that for engineering roles, the difference was even bigger with 63 per cent women losing their jobs compared to 48 per cent of men.&nbsp;

The lawsuit alleged that the company violated federal and California laws banning workplace sex discrimination.&nbsp;

“It’s not a huge surprise unfortunately that women were hit so hard by these layoffs when Elon Musk was overseeing these incredibly ad hoc layoffs just in a matter of days,” Liss-Riordan said at a press conference in San Francisco.

One of the plaintiffs, Wren Turkal, said she had “never seen anything like this”.&nbsp;

“I have a family, I have a kid to support. All that we’re looking for is fairness. I’m also worried about my friends who are financially in a difficult position or are in a difficult position for visa reasons," Turkal said at the press conference.

Liss-Riordan also represents other Twitter employees in three other pending lawsuits filed in the same court.

Claims in these suits include the company laying off employees and contractors without any advance notice required by law, failing to pay promised severance, and Musk forcing out workers with disabilities by refusing to allow remote work and calling on employees to be more “hardcore”.

Three other employees have also filed complaints with the US National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) claiming they faced retaliation for advocating for better working conditions.

Liss-Riordan has also filed complaints with the NLRB on behalf of employees who claim were raising their voice against the policies Musk was implementing after the takeover.&nbsp;

“It’s very clear that this company is doing all it can to disrupt worker organizing and that’s also illegal,” she said.

Twitter says it did no wrong in matters involving advance notice.&nbsp;
