SBF, the founder of crypto trading platform FTX, has formally appealed against his fraud charges for a new trial, accusing the judge hearing his case of being unfairly biased against him.
Last November, a New York jury convicted SBF of seven counts of fraud and conspiracy related to the November 2022 collapse of its cryptocurrency trading platform. In March, U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan for the Southern District of New York (SDNY) sentenced SBF to 25 years in prison for the crime, having served six months.
In a 102-page appeal filed on Friday afternoon, SBF's lawyers argued that Judge Kaplan treated the FTX founder unfairly throughout the trial, making "vitriolic remarks that undermined the defense" and "mocking" his testimony before the jury.
