SEC moves to dismiss lawsuit against Ripple’s Brad Garlinghouse and Chris Larsen

There will likely be no trial for the civil suit involving Brad Garlinghouse and Chris Larsen following the SEC’s notification it would drop the lawsuit against the Ripple execs.

Lawyers representing the United States Securities and Exchange Commission announced they will seek to dismiss all claims against Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse and executive chair Chris Larsen.

In an Oct. 19 filing in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, the SEC notified the court the parties involved in its case against Ripple “have stipulated to the dismissal with prejudice”, suggesting there was no need to schedule an upcoming trial. The filing did not state that the SEC was dropping its civil case against Ripple itself, first filed in 2020.

“The SEC and Ripple intend to meet and confer on a potential briefing schedule with respect to the pending issue in the case—what remedies are proper against Ripple for its Section 5 violations with respect to its Institutional Sales of XRP—and respectfully request until November 9, 2023 to propose such schedule to the Court or, if the parties cannot agree, to seek a briefing schedule from the Court on a contested basis,” said the filing.
