The U.S. Department of Justice pushed back against Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm's motion to dismiss a criminal indictment against him.

The U.S. Department of Justice rebuffed Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm's motion to dismiss criminal charges on Friday, saying the defense filing presented disputed facts that a jury should weigh in on, rather than arguments that fit an early-stage motion. "The defendant cannot obtain dismissal of the Indictment by simply making factual assertions about his own contested view as to how the Tornado Cash service operated and based on his own self-serving version of his intent or lack thereof when taking certain acts," Friday's filing said.
