"Aussie Satoshi" Craig Wright still owes $1.43 billion two years after Kleiman judgment

ChainCatcher message, according to Protos, despite the court ruling almost two years ago, Craig Wright has not yet paid the $143 million in damages. Wright’s late fren and business partner Dave Kleiman’s brother, Ira Kleiman, claimed that the lawyers responsible for recovering the money did not attempt to “enforce the sanctions”. Kleiman stated in a court filing submitted last month that the ‘stay’ order issued by the lawyer on June 5, 2024, suspended the deadline for Wright to pay fees, which was used to delay the recovery of millions of dollars. Kleiman claimed that despite his repeated requests, the lawyer ‘refused to substantially pursue sanctions’, weakening the ability to locate and secure assets. He added, ‘This delay allows Wright to evade responsibility, despite clear court orders’.
