Lawyers for the bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX will go to court on Wednesday to fight a request for internal records from an insolvent affiliate based in the Bahamas, as the two battle for scraps of the once-flying business. FTX’s Bahamian business liquidators will ask U.S. Bankruptcy Judge John Dorsey in an emergency hearing on Wednesday for access to the U.S. unit’s Slack, Google, and Amazon Web Services accounts and data. FTX’s lawyers asked Dorsey to deny the request. They claimed that Bahamian regulators conspired with FTX’s founder, the recently arrested Sam Bankman-Fried, to undermine the bankruptcy case in the United States and withdraw assets to the detriment of some creditors.
