Law Firms Request Disqualification of Roche Freedman From TetherBitfinex Case

Roche Freedman’s troubles do not appear to be dying out anytime soon. After one of its Founding Partner – Kyle Roche – made some astonishing claims in an inebriated state, two other law firms – Kirby McInerney LLP (Kirby) and Radice Law Firm, P.C. (Radice) – submitted a document this week to the court to remove the company as interim co-lead from the Tether and Bitfinex Crypto Asset Litigation. Kirby and Radice are also representing three plaintiffs in the case that alleged stablecoin issuer – Tether – and cryptocurrency exchange – Bitfinex – manipulated the market by issuing unbacked USDT.
