This decision allows Bankman-Fried to focus on his criminal trial without the added pressure of civil proceedings.On February 13th, U.S. District Judge Kevin Castel of Manhattan granted the motion to stay the civil proceedings &#34;without prejudice,&#34; meaning the cases against <a href="https://www.coingabbar.com/en/crypto-blogs-details/were-ftx-funds-insured-understanding-ftx-insurance-amidst-bankruptcy" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">FTX</a> founder and former CEO Damian Williams will be suspended until the conclusion of the criminal trial for the Department of Justice. Williams, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, had initially submitted the motion on February 7th.<img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/f2dca4ac94874fcd820a0ca0161b4e9d.png" />Citing his reasons for wanting the delay, Williams emphasized that all three cases would likely hinge on providing the same evidence against Bankman-Fried and that the Department of Justice&#39;s trial in October would have a “significant impact” on these civil cases.He also suggested that failing to delay the cases could give <a href="https://www.coingabbar.com/en/crypto-currency-news/robinhood-could-buyback-its-equity-from-sbf-for-dollar-578m" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">SBF</a> an unfair advantage in the DOJ’s trial, as the FTX founder had the tools to “improperly obtain impeachment material regarding the government’s witnesses, circumvent the criminal discovery rules, and tailor his defense in the criminal case to his advantage.” Bankman-Fried’s legal team did not oppose William’s motion to postpone the proceedings.In a related court development concerning SBF&#39;s alleged witness tampering antics, Judge Lewis Kaplan of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York extended the FTX founder&#39;s ban on using all encrypted messaging apps until February 21st, as part of his bail conditions.A week prior, SBF&#39;s legal team had negotiated a deal to use certain encrypted apps under strict supervision, however, Judge Kaplan overruled it and suggested that he was more concerned with preventing any encrypted communication than granting SBF a minor convenience. It appears that Judge Kaplan is taking a firm stance on the issue, emphasizing the importance of ensuring that SBF does not engage in any illegal activities.Also Read - <a href="https://www.coingabbar.com/en/crypto-currency-news/ustc-price-jumps-15-percent-lunc-gains-advancement" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">USTC Price Jumps 15%, LUNC Gains After This Advancement</a>
