Lawyers for disgraced crypto mogul Sam Bankman-Fried are requesting a judge ease conditions on some visitors to his parents’ home in the run-up to his criminal trial.

In a filing submitted to Manhattan federal judge Lewis Kaplan on Thursday, Christian Everdall, a lawyer for Bankman-Fried, asked that Kaplan grant permission to a list of guests to visit his family’s home in Palo Alto, California where he currently is under house arrest.

Bankman-Fried is facing prosecution for his role in the collapse of his crypto exchange, FTX, and trading firm, Alameda Research last November. He is facing a litany of allegations, which include wire fraud, money laundering, and campaign finance violations.

Everdall filed the list of potential guests under seal, but he said it includes “close friends and colleagues of Bankman-Fried’s parents and household help.” He added that the guests have already agreed to play by the rules.

“These individuals are aware of and will abide by Mr. Bankman-Fried’s bail conditions, including the prohibition on sharing  ‘Prohibited Electronic Devices’ ,” wrote Everdall. Those devices include smartphones, tablets, computers and any video game platforms or devices that allow chat and voice communication.
