A Delaware judge ordered a halt to Twitter Inc’s lawsuits against Elon Musk on the eve of trial to give the billionaire time to finance his $44 billion takeover of the social media platform, according to a Thursday court filing.

Twitter shares, which ended the day down 3.7%, rose 2.7% in after-hours trade.

Musk was scheduled to go to trial on October 17 and his Thursday deposition was postponed by mutual agreement. Musk said in a Thursday court filing banks are working cooperatively to fund the deal but that he needed more time, arguing a brief delay was still preferable to the months it would take to go through a trial and appeal.

Major banks that committed to fund $12.5 billion, or about 28% of the deal, could be facing hefty losses as the swift pace of interest rate hikes has ratcheted up market volatility and dampened appetite for leveraged financing.
