In the ongoing legal battle between Ripple Labs and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Ripple has responded strongly to the SEC’s claims with a comprehensive response brief, marking a significant advance in the high-profile case. Ripple’s legal team has filed a response brief challenging the SEC’s claims and providing detailed arguments supporting Ripple’s position, signaling the company’s determination to defend itself from regulatory scrutiny surrounding its native cryptocurrency, XRP.

The SEC sued Ripple, alleging that the company violated federal securities laws by selling XRP coins as an unregistered commodity, and the reply summary is Ripple’s most comprehensive response to the charges. Ripple has consistently denied these charges, arguing that XRP is a digital currency similar to Bitcoin and Ethereum that is not subject to SEC regulation as a security.

Ripple submitted Motion to Strike expert testimony and exhibits at the SEC’s relief-related opening briefing on April 22. Ripple filed a motion to exclude accountant Andrea Fox’s testimony from the SEC’s Enforcement Division.

The SEC sought an injunction and imposed a hefty fine in its first filing in March, which included exhibits and testimony from Andrea Fox (the Fox Declaration). According to Ripple, the SEC withheld Andrea Fox’s identity and testimony from discovery related to her relief, despite the fact that she was an expert witness.

The SEC cited Andrea Fox as a summary witness on the motion to dismiss. Importantly, because summary witnesses only restate facts previously presented, the SEC is not required to provide such testimony during discovery.

In its reply brief, Ripple refutes the SEC’s accusations one by one, providing evidence and legal arguments proving that XRP is not a security under the securities laws. This overview highlights the value of XRP as a digital asset used for payments and remittances rather than as an investment contract regulated by securities laws.

Ripple’s legal team also claims that the SEC’s enforcement actions against Ripple have harmed XRP holders, investors, and market participants, resulting in market instability and volatility. The response brief asserts that the SEC’s case has stifled Bitcoin research and investment, as well as blockchain technology and digital assets.

Ripple’s response outline addresses the procedural and evidentiary issues the SEC highlighted in its initial complaint and legal arguments. Ripple’s commitment to transparency, compliance, and regulatory cooperation is reaffirmed in the briefing, clarifying the SEC’s erroneous claims.

Ripple also said the SEC should be allowed to disclose Fox during discovery and question whether she is a summary witness. In its reply summary, Ripple observed that the SEC overlooked the strike motion case.

A decision on a motion to strike may be made by the court at any time. However, the SEC must file a response report regarding the relief by May 6. Ripple will contest the SEC’s request for an injunction and heavy penalties in its relief response report.

Investors, XRP holders, and industry observers are among the stakeholders in the cryptocurrency community who will be watching the court battle closely to see what happens next and how it could affect Ripple, XRP, and the cryptocurrency market. The resolution of this lawsuit is expected to have far-reaching implications for U.S. securities law enforcement and the regulatory treatment of digital assets.
