In a recent development, District Judge Katherine Polk Failla of the Southern District of New York (SDNY) has denied Storm’s motion to dismiss the criminal charges against him.

As the legal battle continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how the case will ultimately be resolved. For now, Storm’s fate hangs in the balance as he prepares to face trial in the Southern District of New York.
