With just over a month until the trial of Sam Bankman-Fried is set to begin, the judge overseeing the case seems to be losing patience with the FTX founder's defense team. In a hearing on Wednesday, he rebuked Bankman-Fried's attorneys, arguing that their concerns over mounting evidence productions from prosecutors were "seriously exaggerated."
Negotiations between the two sides have been escalating since mid-August, when Judge Lewis Kaplan of the Southern District of New York revoked Bankman-Fried's bail, sending the defendant to the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.
