The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has filed a motion in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California to dismiss key defenses presented by Kraken in the ongoing legal dispute between the two.

Regulators argued that Kraken received fair notice in advance when it charged the exchange last year with violating securities laws by offering cryptocurrency assets as “investment contracts.” work out Filed on Tuesday.

The timing of the SEC’s motion, filed on Election Day, prompted criticism from Kraken’s legal team, which saw it as a tactic to avoid “findings about the SEC’s flawed and inconsistent policies.”

The agency is seeking to remove Kraken’s claims of violations of the Key At issue doctrine and due process. Kraken argues that these defenses are critical to protecting the company’s operations from excessive regulation.

Kraken’s claims about a lack of regulatory clarity are “meritless,” the SEC argues.

The motion builds on the SEC’s argument that federal securities laws apply to digital assets offered as investments, a position that has sparked several regulatory clashes with cryptocurrency companies.

“Courts should reject these defenses to help maintain appropriate discovery boundaries. “It narrows the scope of summary judgment, saves judicial and party resources, and prevents Kraken from repeatedly re-litigating the same issues at every possible stage of this case,” the filing states.

Kraken attorney Michael O’Connor criticized both the timing and intent of the SEC’s move in a Wednesday statement to

O’Connor expressed confidence that Kraken’s defense will stand up to scrutiny, citing the Ripple case where a similar SEC application was dismissed.

This motion also came in response to Kraken’s request. Jury trial. It’s a challenge to the SEC’s request to classify 11 cryptocurrencies as securities, including Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), and Polygon (MATIC).

Kraken claimed that its repeated attempts to register with the SEC were “defended” by the agency, alleging that SEC Chairman Gary Gensler has applied securities laws inconsistently to the detriment of the cryptocurrency industry.

The SEC’s motion comes amid speculation that Chairman Gary Gensler could soon resign. Analysts suggest Gensler could resign by the end of the year, following the precedent of SEC chairs leaving office during a change in administration, with Donald Trump expected to be elected.
