A federal judge has granted a motion from the legal team for Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) allowing the former FTX CEO to wear business attire during his first criminal trial.

In a Sept. 27 order filed in United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, Judge Lewis Kaplan said the United States Marshals Service and the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn would make arrangements for SBF to wear business attire for the duration of his criminal trial starting in October. Authorities will be responsible for “accept[ing] and maintain[ing]” 3 full suits, 4 dress shirts, 3 ties, 1 belt, 4 pairs of socks, 2 pairs of shoes, and “appropriate undergarments”.
