A U.S. court has issued a temporary restraining order to BlockFills, freezing approximately 70 bitcoins related to the dispute with Dominion Capital.

Techub News reported, according to CoinDesk, U.S. District Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil for the Southern District of New York issued a temporary restraining order to crypto trading firm BlockFills, freezing 70.6 bitcoin assets allegedly belonging to Dominion Capital and prohibiting the company from transferring assets outside the United States. Previously, Dominion Capital filed a lawsuit accusing BlockFills of misappropriating and illegally retaining client crypto assets, commingling client funds, and concealing massive losses. The court also required BlockFills to account for and segregate client funds until a preliminary injunction hearing is held. The court ordered BlockFills to respond by March 17, at which time the temporary restraining order will expire unless extended by the court.
