“U.S. District Judge Gary Feinerman placed a temporary restraining order on the assets of Mt. Gox CEO Mark Karpelès, along with a related U.S. company and the Japanese company that operates the bitcoin exchange. The Japanese parent company that runs the exchange was shielded from the order because of ongoing bankruptcy proceedings. The ruling came as part of a lawsuit filed on behalf of bitcoin customers who were unable to withdraw their bitcoins and cash from Mt. Gox as it teetered. The lawsuit is seeking class-action status. In court, lawyers for exchange customers alleged Mr. Karpelès has been siphoning money from the exchange.”
