Bitfinex and Tether lawyers motion for New York Attorney General case to be dismissed
According to new court filings published on 21st May, Bitfinex and Tether are hoping to get the case versus the New York Attorney General dismissed.
One set of the court documents show the motion to dismiss from the lawyers of Bitfinex and Tether under claims that the New York Supreme Court does not have jurisdiction over the accused in the case of the alleged criminal activity. The court appeal from the lawyers is founded on the argument that the New York Supreme Court does not have jurisdiction because neither Bitfinex nor Tether operate out of New York and neither did they act against any investors within the New York state.
