Göre mahkeme dosyaları, the now-bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTC paid its lead lawyers, Sullivan & Cromwell LLP a retainer of over $12 million shortly before the firm filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Sullivan & Cromwell indicated that it had drawn only a little more than $3 million of that, and that was for services rendered in the days leading up to the rushed bankruptcy filing according to reports by Bloomberg Yasası.
Sullivan & Cromwell, merkezi New York City'de bulunan ve firmanın ihtiyaç duyduğu hukuki hizmetler için bu ücreti FTX adına West Realm Shires Service Inc.'den alan bir firmadır.
Mevcut bilgiler, FTX'in firmanın hizmetlerinden yararlanmak ve onu korumak için en az 15.5 milyon dolar ödediğini gösteriyor. Mahkeme dosyası ayrıca hukuk firmasının şu anda 9 milyon dolarlık avansı elinde bulundurduğunu ortaya çıkardı.

Most recently, the judge overseeing the SBF-FTX case, District Judge Ronnie Abrams reddedildi herself from the case after she revealed that a law firm employing her husband as a partner had previously advised FTX in 2021. Abrams further explained that the reason for her recusal was informed by the fact that the law firm represented parties that may be adverse to FTX and its former CEO, SBF, in other legal proceedings.

The conditions of SBF’s bail also include a written promise that he appears for future court appearances and he does not engage in any illegal activities.
