The legal counsel for a plaintiff during a very bitcoin (BTC) theft case involving Australian scientist Craig Wright, expressed that Wright — the litigator — did not disclose his bitcoin

holdings per judicial writ. Devin Freedman of business firm Boies Schiller Flexner created his statements in a very tweet on June 21.

As Top Market Group previously reported, in May a U.S. court ordered Wright to provide a listing of his public bitcoin addresses as of Dec. 31, 2013.

Freedman proclaimed that, since he has not consented, "he stays under a request to show cause why [Judge Florina] Reinhart shouldn't issue authorizes" and request him to show up under the watchful eye of Judge Beth Bloom and "clarify why he shouldn't be held in disdain."

The order is part of an ongoing case against Wright — whom self claims to be bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto — that was filed by the estate of David Kleiman.

David Kleiman was a cyber-security professional and scientist, whom several believe to have been one amongst the primary developers behind bitcoin and its underlying blockchain technology.

Kleinman’s estate brought the case to court in Feb 2018, claiming that Wright stole many thousands of BTC value over $5 billion following Kleiman’s death. The estate claims that Kleiman’s friends and family were unaware of the wealth he had accumulated which Wright “forged a series of contracts that alleged to transfer Dave’s assets to Craig and/or corporations controlled by him. Craig backdated these contracts and cast Dave’s signature on them.”

Recently, Wright was requested to show up by and by at intervention to address the allegations against him, in the wake of having mentioned consent to show up by video meeting, contending that physically going to the court would have caused him "unmerited hardship."

In May, Wright documented a copyright guarantee with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to a piece of bitcoin's code and its white paper, however its lawful weight is questioned.
