complaint(one of the two pleadings in every case; the other pleading to be filed in the near future is called the answer) brought by Orlando Pension Fund in response to the anticipated transaction between Twitter and Elon Musk

1. Starting at the bottom of the complaint, page 33 (lawyers are trained to review complaints from the bottom), what remedies in paragraphs A, B, and C are being requested (in the section titled "Prayer for Relief"):

2. Without using proper names (we know Elon Musk is being sued, for example), tell me which corporation roles are part of this litigation? (Hint: you will need to match up the names in the caption on page 1 with the list of parties beginning on page 4)

3. Note that the complaint is being filed in a state court in Delaware. What fact makes the Delaware state court a proper forum for this dispute? (If it were not, the defendants would file a motion to dismiss citing a lack of jurisdiction instead of their responsive pleading called the answer.)
