In the case against Storm, both prosecutors and defense have submitted a joint letter to Judge Failla detailing the next steps following the mixed verdict on August 6. Storm was found guilty of operating an unlicensed money transmitter, but the jury could not reach a verdict on charges of money laundering and evading sanctions. The defense plans to file post-trial motions by September 30, which could potentially limit or overturn a retrial on the unresolved counts and may also seek a retrial on the conviction. Both parties have agreed to pause the "speedy trial" clock, extending the usual 70-day period to start a retrial until November 19, to allow time for the motions to be addressed.
