Former FTX CEO, Sam Bankman-Fried, alleges that he was mistried during the last court proceeding, requesting a new hearing in his latest appeal filing.
The lawyer representing disgraced FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried has appealed the court ruling against his client, seeking a new trial. In a 102-page filing at the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on Friday, Alexandra Shapiro tied the request to reassess the case to presumptuous judgment.
In the appeal, the defendant argued that Bankman-Fried was judged begrudgingly by the presiding judge, Lewis Kaplan of the Southern District of New York (SDNY). Shapiro cited a bias by all involved parties during this client’s sentencing, including the media, FTX debtor estate, and federal prosecutors.
