U.S. prosecutors argued that a Supreme Court ruling cited by Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm is irrelevant to his money laundering charges.Summary
U.S. federal prosecutors have urged a judge to deny Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm’s attempt to dismiss his criminal case by citing a recent Supreme Court copyright ruling involving Cox. Prosecutors contend that the Cox ruling is “inapposite” because, unlike Cox, Storm allegedly failed to prevent illicit activity and actively misled victims regarding his control over the protocol. Storm faces unresolved charges of money laundering and sanctions evasion following an August verdict, with a retrial currently scheduled for October 2026.
