Tornado Cash Developer Roman Storm’s Retrial Pushed to April 2027

Roman Storm’s retrial has been adjourned until April 2027, according to Cointelegraph. Judge Katherine Polk Failla ordered the delay while the court considers Storm’s pending motion for acquittal and a related request for a continuance. Storm is a developer associated with Tornado Cash, a crypto mixing protocol. The adjournment changes the timing of the next phase of the case, but the supplied report does not provide a specific April trial date or further details about the court’s schedule. It also does not state whether the judge has ruled on the acquittal motion. The case is being closely followed in the cryptocurrency sector because it involves the legal treatment of software development and crypto privacy tools. No direct market impact or decision involving the related digital assets was reported in the source.
