Elon Musk and Grimes legal dispute in Texas over their three children was settled.

The clerk’s office in Travis County, the Texas town where Musk first filed suit, confirmed Wednesday that a judge issued a final order in August. The office said the status was listed as “closed” but declined to provide further details.

Representatives for Musk and Grimes did not respond to a request for comment.

The former couple was in an ongoing custody battle three children: 4-year-old X Æ A-12, also known as baby X; Exa of 2 years; and Tau for 2 years.

Musk first filed the custody suit against Grimes in September 2023. Grimes filed her own lawsuit against the billionaire in a San Francisco court that same month. A representative from San Francisco Superior Court said they could not share information about the case because of its restricted status.

Grimes, whose legal name is Claire Boucher, and Musk met in court in August 2024and the legal representation of the two parties met at least once in court before the case was settled.

The case was closed to the public in December 2023. The judge agreed to close the courtroom to the media and the public just minutes after a hearing began.

It is unclear how the lawsuit was resolved. Wednesday, Grimes said on X that he has custody of the children once every two weeks.
