On August 16, the commission accused Ripple lawyers of using a “fundamentally inconsistent argument”. In objection to the decision of the Court, the SEC indicated that Hinman’s speech is not related to the case, and referred to the privilege of lawyer secrets.

At the end of September, the Analysses Judge Torres ordered the department to disclose documents. Then the lawyer James Filan suggested that the regulator could delay the transfer of internal papers “for another two to three months”.

Commenting on the tweet of Alderoti, CEO Ripple Brad Garlinghaus said that “when the truth will ultimately go out, the shame of their [commission] behavior shocks you”.
