 <p>The US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit denied Sam Bankman-Fried‘s appeal for <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="release" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/release.html">release</a>, mandating his continued incarceration as his legal battles unfold.</p>
 <p>The court’s decision, articulated by Clerk of Court Catherine O’Hagan Wolfe in a letter dated Nov. 21 is a clear indication of the judiciary’s stance on Bankman-Fried’s case. Wolfe stated, “[w]e have reviewed the Defendant-Appellant’s additional arguments and find them unpersuasive.”</p>
 <p>This ruling underscores the weight of Bankman-Fried’s alleged misconduct and the court’s commitment to a fair and uncompromised judicial process.

 <p>Bankman-Fried was found guilty on Nov. 2 on seven criminal counts, including defrauding FTX customers, lenders and investors, after a month-long trial. He is now awaiting sentencing, scheduled for March 28.</p>
 <p>The case took a significant turn when Bankman-Fried, initially placed under house arrest, had his bail revoked in October. This action followed his breach of <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="release" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/release.html">release</a> conditions, including leaking Caroline Ellison’s diary to the New York Times, texting witnesses, and speaking to the press while awaiting trial.</p>
