Judge Denies Motion to Limit Disclosure in High-Stakes Crypto Case Between SEC and Binance
-
Judge Amy Berman Jackson denied a joint motion by Binance and the SEC for a protective order to limit disclosure of sensitive information in their legal battle.
-
The denial maintains a higher degree of public access and scrutiny of the case compared to if the order was granted.
-
It may require both parties to strategically reassess handling sensitive data without the protections of an order.
-
Judge Jackson signaled openness to a revised protective order that meets legal standards like filing motions to seal confidential documents.
-
The order keeps proceedings public while acknowledging privacy needs, as the high-stakes crypto case faces growing scrutiny.
