Justin Sun wins partial ruling in dispute with World Liberty Financial

Justin Sun, the founder of Tron (TRX), won a partial victory in his legal dispute with World Liberty Financial (WLFI), Crypto Briefing reported. A U.S. federal court in California declined World Liberty Financial’s request to send all of Sun’s personal claims to private arbitration and decided those claims will continue to be heard in open court. Claims involving companies owned by Sun, however, will be separated between court proceedings and arbitration through consultations between the two sides. Sun claims the project froze his WLFI tokens through smart contract functions after he invested $45 million in World Liberty Financial, and is alleging fraud and other wrongdoing. World Liberty Financial has denied the allegations and has separately filed a defamation suit against Sun.
