Why more Amicus in XRP lawsuit is vital?

Attorney Jeremy Hogan in a post explained why it is good that many Amicus Briefs are trying to enter the XRP lawsuit. He stated that Amicus Curiae is called the “Friend of the Court”. As per records, the Amicus has been submitted only in top level courts. These courts resolve difficult issues in the country.

However, it is not normal to see numerous Amicus Briefs in a “trial level” case. Different individuals entering the XRP lawsuit would show the importance of it among the people.

The court’s or judges allowing as many as Amicus in the case would directly suggest that they understand the issue here is much more complicated. As the ruling over the matter will affect a large group of people or even the industry. Attorney believes that this is a good thing in the XRP lawsuit.

Hogan also informed that the record number of Amicus Briefs being filed in a case has been 78. Many individuals asked the court to let them enter in an abortion case back in 80. However, this case also made it to the U.S Supreme court.
