South Korean Court Holds First Trial Of Terra Co-Founder

Terra Co-Founder Daniel Shin Preliminary Hearing

During the first hearing at Seoul Southern District Court, lawyers representing Terra co-founder Daniel Shin, former CEO of Chai Corp, asked for more time from Judge Jang Seong-hoon to prepare for criminal defense.

The court has approved the request and set a date of August 28 for a second hearing. The prosecutors are disappointed with continuous delays. The judge said:

“We will check the opinions of the lawyers and reopen the trial preparation date to decide the opportunity for defense and the order of interrogation.”

The first trial was originally scheduled on May 26, but was postponed to this day due to controversy over the fairness of the chief judge. Daniel Shin hired a team of 30 lawyers for his defense, which includes former judges, prosecutors, and lawyers experienced in digital assets-related and capital markets law cases.
