Former Celsius CEO Alex Mashinsky Requests Sentencing Delay

Former Celsius CEO Alex Mashinsky has requested a delay in his sentencing hearing.

Request for Sentencing Delay

In February, Alex Mashinsky, former CEO of Celsius, submitted a request through his attorneys to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, seeking to move his sentencing from April 8 to May 8. Mashinsky's defense argued that he was pulled in multiple directions, necessitating additional preparation time for the hearing.

Charges Against Mashinsky

In 2023, Mashinsky was charged with seven counts related to fraud and manipulating the price of Celsius' CEL token. Initially set to go to trial, Mashinsky pled guilty to two charges in December 2024. Prosecutors have provided victim impact statements to his lawyers and objected to the sentencing delay.

Other Figures in the Case

Celsius' former Chief Revenue Officer, Roni Cohen-Pavon, also named in the indictment, pled guilty to four charges in September 2023. His sentencing hearing has not been scheduled yet but is expected after Mashinsky's.

The legal proceedings against former Celsius executives are ongoing, with the outcomes and possible sentences yet to be determined.
