Bitcoin mining firm NewRays alleges that Judge Allen Dodson, prosecuting attorney Phil Murphy, selectively enforced noise legislation to target its business.
A crypto mining company is suing an Arkansas County judge and prosecutor over what it claims is selective enforcement action against crypto firms.
In a complaint filed with the district court of Arkansas on Sept. 26, Bitcoin mining firm NewRays alleges that Judge Allen Dodson, prosecuting attorney Phil Murphy, and others are selectively enforcing noise legislation targeting its business operations.
NewRays acquired the property in Faulkner County, Arkansas, in October 2022 to operate a data center for crypto mining at a time when there were no relevant zoning restrictions.
