Tornado Cash Developer Roman Storm’s Trial Delayed Until April

The criminal trial for Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm has been delayed until April, as a New York judge granted the request to allow the parties more time to resolve a dispute over expert witness disclosures. Storm's legal team argued that disclosing the names of their expert witnesses would prejudice their defense and may have contravened federal rules. They have filed a mandamus petition with a higher court to overturn the judge's order. Storm's trial is now scheduled to begin on April 14 and is expected to last for two weeks. He faces charges related to money laundering, operating an unlicensed money transmitter, and violating sanctions, with a potential prison sentence of up to 45 years if convicted.
