A Manhattan judge has dismissed a breach of contract action filed against Mullen Automotive, agreeing with the electric car company that litigation involving the corporation’s internal affairs should occur in Delaware.

Plaintiffs DBI Lease Buyback Servicing LLC and Drawbridge Investments LLC sued Mullen in March, alleging the company improperly refused to issue them options for $25 million in Mullen convertible Series E preferred Stock in breach of an agreement.
