SBF’s pardon application, appeal, and retrial proceed in parallel— the legal team is betting on multiple paths to a favorable outcome

MarsBitNews
Crypto Mars News: On June 8, while formally submitting a pardon application to U.S. President Donald Trump, FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) is also pushing forward several legal proceedings in parallel, seeking to overturn his conviction through administrative and legal channels. At present, SBF’s team is running three parallel fronts. In addition to the newly initiated presidential pardon application, his appeal challenging the conviction filed with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit (case number 24-961) completed oral arguments in November 2025 and is still awaiting a ruling. The appeal mainly focuses on issues such as the rules for admitting evidence, the fairness of the trial proceedings, and whether the presiding judge exhibited bias. Meanwhile, in February 2026, SBF’s mother, Barbara Fried, also filed a motion for a retrial with the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York under Rule 33 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, arguing that the trial process involved violations of due process and asking the court to retry the case. Analysts note that pursuing a presidential pardon, a federal appeal, and a retrial motion in parallel reflects that SBF’s legal team is not pinning its hopes on a single channel, but instead is trying to advance both administrative power and judicial procedures at the same time to secure more chances to overturn his 25-year prison sentence. At present, none of the above proceedings has yet reached a final decision.
