Legal Trouble for Ripple
Ripple is facing legal trouble with the SEC, as the regulatory body is demanding financial statements and post-complaint contracts from 2022-2023.
SEC’s Motion to Compel
The SEC filed a motion on January 11th, asking the court to order Ripple to hand over financial statements and sales contracts.
Judge Sarah Netburn received the letter, following a ruling by Judge Analisa Torres, who found that Ripple had violated rules by offering and selling securities through unregistered transactions to certain institutional buyers.
What’s Next?
The SEC claimed that Ripple has not presented any of the post-complaint documents and is now moving to compel on two narrow document requests and one interrogatory.
The court has given both parties one month to submit their case and object to the request, with speculation that a settlement may be reached this time.
Hot Take
Ripple’s legal battle with the SEC continues as the regulatory body seeks financial statements and contracts, setting the stage for potential settlements in the future. The crypto community is closely watching as this drama unfolds.
