Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm's defense team has filed a series of new documents seeking to dismiss the trial against Storm before it even begins, arguing that prosecutors overstepped their authority in their final pretrial motion. After the government responded to Storm's motion to dismiss the trial, his defense team filed another response last Friday, arguing that the case against him should be dismissed on the grounds that the government did not do enough to prove that Storm actively participated in the crimes alleged in the indictment. "In fact, as the government admits, when criminals began to abuse the Tornado Cash protocol, it was immutable and available to anyone with an internet connection," the motion states. Most of the documents question the government's description of Tornado Cash as a "money transmission business," a description that even caught the attention of Senators Ron Wyden and Cynthia Lummis, who sent a letter opposing the government's interpretation of the term, which was also included in Storm's motion. Storm's lawyers argue that characterizing Tornado Cash as a money transmission institution "...violates due process, leniency principles, and principles against innovative structures." In other motions, lawyers argued that government prosecutors should be forced to provide certain communications with Dutch authorities and that the seizure of his cryptocurrency hardware wallet violated the Fourth Amendment. (The Block) Earlier in April, the U.S. Department of Justice rejected Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm's motion to dismiss criminal charges against him, saying that the documents submitted by the defendant raised controversial facts that the jury should weigh.
