On July 10, 2025, former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried filed for a retrial after his 25-year sentence, submitting new testimony asserting that FTX remained solvent prior to its collapse. He accused the U.S. Department of Justice, under the Biden administration, of witness intimidation that he claims affected his conviction. This filing builds on his earlier pro se motion under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 33, in which he alleged prosecutorial misconduct, political bias, lack of key witnesses, and judicial bias by Judge Lewis Kaplan. Court responses to the latest motion are pending.
