⚖️ Justin Sun's claims against World Liberty stay in open court
A federal judge has rejected World Liberty Financial's bid to move Justin Sun's lawsuit into private arbitration and seal the proceedings, keeping the case in public view.
Sun's individual claims will continue in open court after the court denied the attempt to compel arbitration. The ruling is a procedural development, not a ruling on the merits of Sun's allegations against World Liberty Financial.
The case draws attention given World Liberty Financial's ties to prominent figures in the crypto space, making its public proceedings a matter of broader industry interest.
