"The defendant’s unlimited access to these resources was curtailed solely as a consequence of his own criminal actions while on bail, despite repeated chances to demonstrate that pretrial release was the least restrictive means to assure the safety of the community."

The prosecutors, on the other hand, argue that the Sixth Amendment right to a fair trial does not require a defendant to have constant Internet access.

Props to SBF's lawyers. It can't be easy to argue that your client is being prevented from spending every possible moment preparing his defense, as he needs, while he's decided he'd rather sit in his jail cell than meet with attorneys because the Internet's too slow.

Meanwhile, SBF has been refusing to meet with his attorneys because he's dissatisfied with the Internet access and battery life of the laptop that they're provided.

Sam Bankman-Fried's attorneys say that he needs to be released from custody and returned to his parents house so that he can spend more time reviewing documents and preparing his defense than he is able to in jail with limited access to the Internet.

If the government is allowed to reference SBF's resignation, the defense wants to "delve into the motives of FTX’s leadership to move precipitously into bankruptcy and their efforts to scapegoat [SBF] and appease the government and regulators by offering him up for prosecution."

#FTX #SBF #cryptocurrency #crypto

SBF's team does not want the government to be able to suggest that FTX creditors will lose money. If they do, the team wants to be allowed to "delve into the FTX Debtor Entities’ mismanagement of the bankruptcy estate and selling off assets at a fraction of what they are worth"

#FTX #SBF #cryptocurrency #crypto

"Indeed, some of the parties leaning hardest on Mr. Bankman-Fried to sign over control of FTX and its affiliates to Mr. Ray, so that he and FTX’s outside counsel could steer the companies into bankruptcy, apparently stood to gain significantly from these events."

These parties are Ryne Miller and Dan Friedberg, according to the defense.

Re: excluding evidence produced after 7/1, the defense argues: "Now that [SBF] has been detained with no access to discovery for the foreseeable future, there is no chance of him being able to review these late-produced documents before trial to assist in preparing his defense."
