Fraudster Freddy David is appealing against his six-year prison sentence for a massive Ponzi scheme, many of whose victims were from the Jewish community.
David, 49, was jailed last month after he admitted defrauding 55 people out of £14.5 million.
The Judicial Office confirmed to the JC that he had made an application for permission to appeal, although it is not yet clear whether the request will be granted.
A spokesperson said: “The next step will be for a single judge to consider whether to grant permission on the papers. If permission is granted it will then go to a full hearing in front of three judges. As yet there is no indication of any timescales.”
