New Process in SEC and Ripple Case
There are new developments in the long litigation process between the SEC and Ripple, which has been going on for two years. In the most recent court filing, Ripple Labs and two top executives asked the court to issue a summary ruling in their favor, alleging that the SEC failed to prove its case against them as required by law. Following this request, the SEC requested additional time from the court pending the submission of the abstracts. But Ripple said that this proposal by the SEC is another attempt to further delay the resolution of the case, and the court should reject it. Ripple officials submitted their petitions to the Southern District of New York court, where the case was heard, and demanded that the case be decided now, stating that they had no defense other than the evidence they had presented so far.
On the SEC side, the SEC filed a petition in court, stating that the sale of XRP by Ripple classifies the cryptocurrency as an investment vehicle and has committed a securities breach under the U.S. Securities law. While the possibility of the SEC choosing to settle the case was among the options, the court requested the SEC to file its objection against the motion by October 18. This summary decision request submitted by the parties is seen by many as the most important development of the case and it is thought that the case will end soon.
Brad Garlinghouse Makes a Statement
After these developments, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse shared a tweet criticizing the SEC. Garlinghouse tweeted that the SEC is not interested in enforcing the law: “They want to redo everything in an impromptu effort to expand their powers far beyond what Congress has given them.” used the phrases.
