Guo Wengui / Miles Guo (Ho Wan Kwok): community discussion 143

Community discussion, batch 143 (Aug 6, 2026 – Aug 9, 2026), 1,000 messages, on the Guo Wengui / Miles Guo (Ho Wan Kwok) case. Participants strongly divide over litigation strategy in the post-trial and appellate phases of the criminal case against Guo. One side advocates pursuing third-party property recovery through CVRA and 21 U.S.C. § 853(n) or § 853(i), while another insists priority belongs to challenging procedural rulings and substantive errors. Disagreements intensify over attorney authority representing thousands of investors, conflicting priority between criminal forfeiture and bankruptcy trustee clawbacks, and settlements involving HCHK assets under Bankruptcy Rule 9019.
