SEC appeal a bust? Judge's ruling will favor XRP, crypto attorney predicts
Judge Analisa Torres is expected to reject the SEC's interlocutory appeal regarding the Ripple case, potentially delaying a complete appeal until late 2024, according to attorney John Deaton, who believes the judge made a fair decision based on applying the Howey test to each charge brought by the SEC. Deaton also discussed the challenge of holding regulators accountable due to qualified immunity.
