Sam Bankman-Fried's legal team has requested a third extension on the enforcement of his revised bail conditions in the Southern District of New York. The lawyers cited difficulties in installing monitoring software on Bankman-Fried's parents' cell phones to capture a photo of the user "every five minutes." The legal team stated they were optimistic about finding a solution but needed more time to conduct further tests on the monitoring software to confirm its capabilities.

There have been significant concerns raised over Bankman-Fried's access to cell phones, with Judge Kaplan warning that there was "probable cause" to believe that Bankman-Fried was involved in attempted witness tampering. The proposal said that Bankman-Fried's communication should be limited to a "flip phone or other non-smartphone with either no internet capabilities or internet capabilities disabled."
