US SEC Didn’t Remove or Move Ripple Lawsuit
Sherrie, a popular expert amongst the XRP community, has refuted the Ripple lawsuit removal by the US SEC reports. She confirmed that Ripple Labs isn’t at the trial court level and the case will show under the Award Claims page of the SEC.
Moreover, the case is available on the Court of Appeals website since it was assigned a new case number. The case concluded in district court as Judge Analisa Torres ordered Ripple to pay $125 million in penalty, which was far lower than the $2 billion expected by the SEC.

Settlement or Dismissal of XRP Lawsuit May Get Delayed Further
Paul Atkins is estimated to get approval as SEC Chairman by the US Senate around April. It is highly unlikely the Ripple vs SEC lawsuit will be dropped by an Acting Chair, claims Sherrie.
Generally these big cases are dealt with by the actual Chairman. Atkins has an estimated time of getting approved by the Senate around April.
Also, she added that Ripple to submit its brief related to appeal and cross-appeal by April 16 is scheduled for a reason. Also, attorney Jeremy Hogan predicted an April or May timeline for the SEC to withdraw or dismiss the case.
As per the US Senate website, Paul Atkins will remain a member of the Securities and Exchange Commission until June 5, 2031.

In case the parties decide to drop their respective appeals, a notice will be submitted to the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. As per Sherrie, the written notice or letter is generally a “simple single page and will have signatures included.”
She further elaborated that the US SEC needs to hold a vote to drop the case in the presence of SEC Chair Paul Atkins. Then they will contact Ripple’s lawyers. If the parties agree to drop the case, a written notice gets sent electronically to the court docket.
According to her, the Ripple vs SEC lawsuit is likely to be resolved between April and June this year. The SEC under Paul Atkins may decide not to pursue appeals further.
