Lawyers for Andrew Vara, the United States Trustee representing the interests of the Department of Justice in crypto exchange FTX’s bankruptcy proceedings, has filed an appeal against a federal judge’s denial of a motion appointing an independent examiner in the case.

In a March 6 filing in U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, the legal team petitioned to have the U.S. District Court consider an appeal of a February ruling from Judge John Dorsey. The federal judge said in a Feb. 15 hearing that he would deny a motion to appoint an examiner in the FTX bankruptcy case, saying it would be an “unnecessary burden” on the firm’s debtors and creditors.
