The U.S. Department of Justice rejected the latest motion for withdrawal by Tornado Cash developers.

CoinFeed reported on April 8th that, according to Decrypt, the U.S. Department of Justice on Tuesday rejected a new motion by Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm to dismiss his case based on a recent Supreme Court ruling. Storm's lawyers had previously argued that the Supreme Court's March 25th ruling in a music copyright case that internet service provider Cox was not liable for user copyright infringement should apply to Storm's case. However, in a letter to Judge Katherine Polk Failla, federal prosecutors pointed out a fundamental difference between the Cox and Storm cases: Cox actively prevented user copyright infringement and stopped the vast majority of violations, while Storm knowingly failed to intervene when Tornado Cash was being used for money laundering.
