U.S. District Judge Ronnie Abrams withdrew her participation from legal proceedings around FTX's disgraced former CEO and founder SBF, amid a potential conflict of interest.
Abrams noted that her husband, Greg Andres, is a partner at Davis Polk & Wardwell, an FTX adviser in 2021.
"My husband has had no involvement in any of these representations," Abrams wrote in a filing on Friday. "Nonetheless, to avoid any possible conflict, or the appearance of one, the Court hereby recuses itself from this action."
