- Defendant requested that Judge Netburn investigate OIEA and FinHub’s enquiries.
Every day, new documents have been filed in the lawsuit between the SEC and Ripple, a San Francisco-based fintech company. However, the Plaintiff’s (U.S. SEC) efforts to prolong the case continue to align or follow the same pattern.
SEC’s attempt to seal its objection to the amicus request to represent 67,300 XRP holders in Patrick Doody’s expert witness challenge was rejected by Ripple and Individual Defendants Chris Larsen and Brad Garlinghouse, according to a filing.
SEC Asked to Submit Proposed Redactions
In response to a testimony by an SEC expert witness, Patrick Doody, whose report was intended to explain why XRP holders purchased the token, this reaction emerged. In the same way, Deaton, as previously noted, aimed to represent members of the local community involved in the case.
#XRPCommunity #SECGov v. #Ripple #XRP The Court denies SEC’s Motion to Seal and Orders it to file by June 14th a redacted version of the brief and exhibits, under seal, redacting information “only to the extent necessary to safeguard information sought to be filed under seal.” pic.twitter.com/rtblZL40eH

It seems, however, that even the Court has had enough at this point. The Court refused the SEC’s request to seal the document above in a June 10 filing. A well-known lawyer, James Filan, tweeted about this filing on June 10. SEC must also submit a letter by June 14 2022, outlining its proposed redactions and stating which documents are to be sealed. According to the Court, the SEC went too far to seal Ripple’s transaction data.
This might be a significant factor in the resurgence of interest in XRP. Additionally, Ripple Labs responded to the SEC’s flaws in its replies to the Ripple Defendants’ Fourth Set of RFAs, which the company submitted. Defendant requested that Judge Netburn investigate OIEA and FinHub’s enquiries concerning XRP. As a result, Plaintiff is under pressure.
