SDNY COURTHOUSE, August 11 – Arthur Hayes, Samuel Reed and others are defendants in a money laundering / Bitcoin case.
On February 9, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge John G. Koeltl held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.
The case is about BitMEX, which allegedly had no AML program.
On August 11, Judge Koeltl held a length telephone proceeding with 39 on the line. Inner City Press was one of them. Issues of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission refusing to turn over discovery arose and was debated at length. So too a hard drive as to which privilege was allegedly waived. The docket is replete with redacted exhibits.
The case is US v. Hayes, et al., 20-cr-500 (Koeltl)
