Sam Bankman-Fried, the former CEO of FTX, has raised concerns over the missed discovery deadlines by prosecutors regarding crucial evidence needed for his defense against a range of fraud charges. In a letter to United States District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan on June 5, Bankman-Fried&#39;s legal team highlighted that the government had failed to provide all the contents of five electronic devices, which were supposed to be disclosed by the end of March. Notably, these devices included laptops belonging to Caroline Ellison, the former CEO of Alameda Research, and Gary Wang, the co-founder of FTX.The letter from Bankman-Fried&#39;s attorneys emphasized the significance of this late production of an extensive and important discovery, particularly with the trial date fast approaching in less than four months. Concerns were raised about the potential impact on the defense&#39;s preparation. While Bankman-Fried is scheduled to appear in court on October 2 to face fraud charges, allegations of unlawful political donations, and bribes to the Chinese government, he expressed a desire to avoid an adjournment of the trial date. However, the letter mentioned the possibility of filing additional motions if the newly produced evidence provided grounds for such actions.Additionally, the letter stated that the government had also failed to provide information regarding FTX debtors, further hampering the defense&#39;s ability to adequately prepare for the trial. The letter revealed that the current productions amounted to an extensive volume, surpassing 3.6 million documents and over 10 million pages. The defense received the most recent production on May 25, consisting of nearly 2.5 million documents, effectively tripling the number of documents in the existing discovery.In related news, as FTX grapples with its challenges, reports indicate that the company&#39;s bankers are exploring options to sell shares in an artificial intelligence (AI) startup called Anthropic. Perella Weinberg, the investment banking firm working with the bankrupt exchange, has apparently been enticing potential investors with the sale of hundreds of millions of dollars worth of Anthropic shares. FTX held $500 million worth of Anthropic stock during its bankruptcy in November 2022, and the current AI boom has likely increased the value significantly. Recently, Anthropic successfully raised $450 million in a Series C funding round, resulting in a reported valuation of $4.6 billion.Overall, Bankman-Fried&#39;s concerns over missed discovery deadlines and the potential implications on the defense&#39;s preparation underscore the significance of the upcoming trial. Simultaneously, FTX bankers&#39; efforts to sell shares in Anthropic highlight the company&#39;s attempts to navigate its financial challenges by capitalizing on the booming AI sector.
