Judge Sees Whether SBF Can Use FTX’s $10 Million Insurance For Fraud Case
Key Points:
- A US judge is considering allowing SBF to use FTX’s $10 million insurance fund for his lawsuits.
- FTX provides its directors and employees with a $10 million insurance plan in case of a lawsuit. But they claim that SBF is guilty, and it is not for him.
- Sam claimed he was proletarian at the time of his arrest, and his legal interns came from a previous gift from Alameda Research.
A bankruptcy judge will consider Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF)’s offer to access an FTX insurance policy to fund his legal defense during a hearing on Wednesday.
As mentioned earlier, FTX provides its directors and employees with a $10 million insurance plan in case of a lawsuit. The creditors’ committee had also previously filed a motion asking the judge to deny Sam access to insurance funds to pay off his substantial legal bills. They think the insurance fund is only for the clean people, so it shouldn’t be for him. SBF’s proposal was opposed by the Unsecured Official Creditors, which said that any funds he gets might instead be given to the FTX.
Responding to this, SBF’s Attorney stated that although SBF has been charged, he has not been proven guilty, and therefore he should be presumed innocent and insured to strengthen his defense in court. The former billionaire’s lawyers say he should be presumed innocent and allowed access to insurance to bolster his right to defend himself in court. In their words, denying him access to the plan would be “unequal and unfair treatment.”
Even if Bankman-Fried’s attempt to access an insurance policy is successful and he receives a payout, experts say, he could still face regulatory hurdles related to this policy. If Bankman-Fried has access to a $10 million policy and insurance providers think he deserves to be paid, he may have to pay that money back if he is found guilty.
Bankman-Fried asked the judge to lift the period of stay to allow insurance providers Relm Insurance and Beazley Insurance to assess whether he was insured and make payments according to the contract terms.
