SDNY COURTHOUSE, March 23 – Forex trader Rohan Ramchandrani sued Citigroup for tricking DOJ into indicting him. Now there are disputes about deposing a DOJ witness.             

   On March 23, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Magistrate Judge Stewart D. Aaron held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.

  The plaintiff has complained about Citigroup moving for the DOJ deposition before completing its discovery production.

Judge Aaron asked pointed questions about delay, then held a non-public portion about counsel's health.

 To his credit he returned with a public summary, and said he'll leave some of the timing of the depositions to counsel.

The case is Ramchandani v. CitiBank National Association et al., 19-cv-9124 (Marrero / Aaron)
