The lawyer representing Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) in his upcoming case against the United States Department of Justice submitted a renewed request for his temporary release from jail in order to prepare for the trial.<\/p>\n
On Sept. 25, Mark Cohen requested that Judge Lewis Kaplan, who is presiding over the case, allow SBF temporary release as it is \u201cnecessary for preparation of [his] defense.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe submit that we are finding it exceedingly difficult as a practical matter to adequately prepare for trial with the restrictions on access currently in place.\u201d <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
He continued by saying the government had presented the defense with 50 witnesses and thousands of pieces of material and exhibits. Cohen said they wouldn\u2019t be able to \u201cproperly represent\u201d SBF without the ability to confer with him and prepare for the witnesses and exhibits outside of the courtroom. <\/p>\n
Cohen petitioned that the case is \u201chighly technical and complex,\u201d and the legal team needs their client to help them understand certain complexities of the case. He wrote that SBF\u2019s \u201cknowledge and insight cannot be replicated by third-party experts.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

It also stated that SBF would consent to a gag order for the duration of the trial, which will prohibit him from speaking with anyone except his attorneys and defense team, his parents and his brother.<\/p>\n
On Sept. 21, a three-judge panel denied the former FTX CEO\u2019s request for early release from jail and called the arguments made by the lawyers in the motion for release \u201cunpersuasive.\u201d<\/p>\n
The same day, Kaplan granted in limine <\/em>motions from the prosecutors, which will now bar certain witnesses from testifying on the side of SBF in the upcoming criminal trial. <\/p>\nBankman-Fried\u2019s first criminal trial is scheduled for Oct. 3, at which he will face seven criminal charges related to misuse of user funds at FTX and Alameda Research. The second trial will be in March 2024, when he will face five additional criminal charges. He has pleaded not guilty to all counts.<\/p>\n
