## Summary

This is a fundraising appeal from Roman Storm, who asks supporters to help raise an additional $2 million for his legal defense fund ahead of a new trial date of July 14. He says his case has involved new motions, new expert witnesses and new evidence since the work began in August 2023, and he describes this as the final and most crucial push in the case. Storm frames the outcome as a precedent for whether software developers can be criminalized, and directs readers to FreeRomanStorm.com to donate.

Folks!

If you follow my case, you know how hard we've been fighting the DOJ’s charges. New trial date (July 14), new motions, new expert witnesses, new evidence - all this work adds
 up, but we've made lots of progress since we started in August 2023. 
 
In this final and most crucial push that will determine my - and your - future, I really need everyone's support to help me raise an additional $2 million for my legal defense
 fund to see this case through the trial. 
 
I'm the first one to admit how exhausting the trial delays have been for everyone involved, but I'm proud of my legal team’s work, and I will keep fighting - with your help.

 Thank you for your unending support! We cannot let the DOJ use my case to set a precedent in criminalizing software developers!
