Sam Bankman-Fried’s lawyers are opposing prosecutors’ request to call FTX customers and investors to testify about how they understood the now-failed crypto exchange’s use of their assets. Bankman-Fried is facing fraud charges in New York and potentially decades in prison. His lawyers argued that decisions about specific testimony from witnesses cannot be made without cross-examination. Lawyers for Bankman-Fried also filed letters requesting clarification on the court’s previous granting of a request to preclude arguments about FTX’s US regulation and compliance. Jury selection is expected to start soon.
