Окружной суд в Калифорнии отклонил иск трейдеров против BitMEX – Bits Media

California Court Rejects Scam Charges, nominated by traders against the BitMEX derivatives exchange, since the allegations are verbose and copied from another lawsuit against the same platform.

As reported by Law360, Judge William Orrick (William Orrick) dismissed the plaintiff's claims about volume, что BitMEX участвовала в манипулировании рынком, подстрекательстве к мошенничеству и нарушила Закон о противодействии рэкету и коррупции, а также Закон о товарных биржах. Judge Orrick concluded, that the complaints were “indirect” and “extensive” in nature and stated:

“Only the volume and extensive nature of the allegations can serve as a reason for dismissing the claim. I tried to find a valid claim and couldn't.".

The amended complaint was brought forward by a group of cryptocurrency traders, including BMA LLC – company, которая печально известна возбуждением судебных тяжб против известных криптовалютных фирм. Судья Оррик отклонил более раннюю версию иска в марте на основании того, that she was too verbose.

Although the court directly warned, that the previous complaint about 237 pages and 600 the paragraphs were too long, plaintiffs' amended complaint contained 378 pages and more 1000 paragraphs. The judge ruled, that the amended complaint included allegations of market manipulation, that were copied and pasted from another claim, filed against BitMEX in New York.

Plaintiffs are prohibited from attempting to re-initiate the case., and Orrick denied their request to further amend the complaint. Юридический представитель истцов Павел Погодин оспорил заявление судьи о том, что в измененной жалобе был использован скопированный текст, And he said:

«Судья Оррик не привел в пример ни одно конкретное дело в поддержку своих утверждений относительно скопированных материалов».

Погодин добавил, that individual traders plan to press charges again, next time in California State Court.

Recall, What in October 2020 year, the CFTC sent
a lawsuit against the management of the BitMEX exchange, accusing him of illegally conducting business in the USA and violating KYC and AML rules. In August, the BitMEX exchange reported
settlement of claims by the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the US Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). Компания выплатит $100 млн для урегулирования претензий.
