SBF's Appeal Hearing is scheduled for November 4th, seeking a retrial and alleging judicial bias against the original judge.

BlockBeats News, November 2nd, according to CoinDesk, FTX founder SBF's appeal hearing is scheduled for November 4th, two years after he was sentenced to 25 years in prison. The hearing on November 4th will allocate 10 minutes of statement time to each side. One side is the New York Southern District Attorney's team led by former SEC Chairman Jay Clayton, and the other side is SBF's new defense team led by senior appellate lawyer Alexandra Shapiro. During the hearing, the presiding judge may ask questions to clarify details. This hearing will not re-litigate the charges themselves but will focus on whether the trial process was conducted properly.

According to the defense's court statement submitted in September 2024, SBF as the appellant hopes to receive a new trial presided over by a new judge. His team believes that District Judge Lewis Kaplan, who presided over the original trial, was biased against SBF and made unfair comments during the trial process, damaging the defense's case.

The U.S. court will hear arguments next week regarding the SBF's motion for retrial.
