\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPosted: September 2, 2023 Lawyers representing Ripple [XRP]<\/a> have challenged the United States Securities and Exchange Commission [SEC]<\/a> over its request for an appeal in its ongoing lawsuit. In a filing<\/a> dated 1 September, Ripple\u2019s legal team argued that the SEC\u2019s appeal was primarily driven by its dissatisfaction with a prior court decision.<\/p>\n The filing was submitted to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. It further asserted\u00a0that the SEC has failed to meet the necessary requirements for an appeal. Moreover, the filing called for the judge to deny any such request.<\/p>\n Ripple\u2019s legal team maintained that \u201cexceptional circumstances required for interlocutory appeal\u201d are conspicuously absent in this case.<\/p>\n Ripple expressed its stance in clear terms, stating,<\/p>\n \u201cThe SEC has not even attempted to meet the standard for a stay, even after the Individual Defendants identified that omission in their pre-motion letter. The Individual Defendants write separately to oppose the SEC\u2019s request. Ripple joins that opposition.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n This legal dispute traces back to December 2020 when the SEC initiated<\/a> a lawsuit against Ripple, including its CEO Brad Garlinghouse and co-founder Chris Larsen. The lawsuit led to many exchanges delisting XRP as a precaution against potential legal repercussions.<\/p>\n However, Judge Analisa Torres ruled in July that XRP did not meet the SEC\u2019s criteria for classification as a security. Following this decision, several exchanges announced plans to relist XRP, indicating a shift in sentiment.<\/p>\n Brad Garlinghouse, Ripple\u2019s CEO, expressed his concerns about the SEC\u2019s actions in a post on 29 August. Garlinghouse remarked,<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s sad that so many in the US crypto community have to resort to the legal process to prove this SEC is out of control and consistently wrong on the facts and the law.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n While these are great outcomes\u2026 and it\u2019s feeling like a summer of justice\u2026 <\/p>\n it\u2019s sad that so many in the US crypto community have to resort to the legal process to prove this SEC is out of control and consistently WRONG on the facts and the law. https:\/\/t.co\/sdZpaO4coh<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Brad Garlinghouse (@bgarlinghouse) August 29, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The SEC has notably pursued various cryptocurrency companies throughout 2023 on allegations of securities violations, including Ripple [XRP]<\/a> and Coinbase [COIN]<\/a>.<\/p>\n In a significant development, asset manager Grayscale<\/a> achieved <\/a>a legal victory against the SEC on 29 August. The victory resulted from an appeal that ordered a review of Grayscale\u2019s application for a spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF).<\/p>\n The legal battle between the SEC and Ripple continues. Judge Analisa Torres has proposed a jury trial scheduled for the second quarter of 2024. This high-profile case remains a focal point in the ongoing regulatory landscape of the cryptocurrency industry.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" contributor Posted: September 2, 2023 Ripple\u2019s lawyers filed a new appeal on 1 September.
