Judge John Koeltl ordered Alex Mashinsky and prosecutors to appear in court on Nov. 13 to address the former Celsius CEO’s motion to dismiss fraud and market manipulation charges.
Alex Mashinsky, the former CEO of crypto platform Celsius, will appear in a New York courtroom for the first time in months for oral arguments related to his motion to dismiss charges.
In an Oct. 23 filing in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, Judge John Koeltl ordered Mashinsky and prosecutors to appear in court on Nov. 13 to “preserve testimony” and address the former Celsius CEO’s motion to dismiss certain charges in the indictment. In January, Mashinsky’s lawyers filed motions to dismiss charges related to commodities fraud and market manipulation.
