Bitfinex can stop turning over documents to the NYAG, says an Appeals Court ruling
Bitfinex does not need to continue turning over documents to the New York Attorney General’s office (OAG) – at least, for now, CoinDesk's Nikhilesh De reports. The Appellate Division of the Supreme Court has stayed a previous ruling by New York Supreme Court Judge Joel Cohen, according to a court order dated Tuesday. According to the order, the respondents moved to stay an order to turn over documents about the loan. The judges wrote:
“It is ordered that the motion is granted on condition the appeal is perfected on or before November 4, 2019 for the January 2020 Term.”
The appeal will likely be fully briefed by sometime in December, with arguments not occurring before next year.
