SBF has formally appealed his fraud convictions. In a 102-page appeal filed Friday afternoon, SBF's lawyers requested the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit to overturn the convictions and assign a new judge to retry the case, alleging bias against SBF by the judge who presided over his trial. Last November, a New York jury convicted SBF on seven counts of fraud and conspiracy related to the collapse of his cryptocurrency exchange in November 2022. In March, U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan of the Southern District of New York (SDNY) sentenced SBF to 25 years in prison for the crimes, of which he has now served six months. (Breaking The News)
