XRP Lawsuit News: The US District Court of the Southern District of New York recently produced a decision in favor of Ripple Labs on the Hinman speech linked documents and emails dispute.

According to Ben Edwards, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) tweaked its disclaimer for public speeches. It now mentions a statement that the remarks given by the officials are in their official capacity. It is expected that redaction came in response to the Ripple Lab’s discovery dispute.

It is important to note that the US SEC changed its assertion on the speech couple of times. The judge in the order mentioned the Hypocritical position taken by the commission over the speech and documents. She stated that the SEC’s lawyers “lack a faithful allegiance to the law.”
However, the newly replaced disclaimer might help the commission to support its stance to withhold documents in discovery. This will align with an exemption that allows federal agencies to hide crucial details.
