🚨 XRP LEGAL BATTLE INTENSIFIES: Ripple Pressured by U.S. Court for Alternative Settlement ⚠️
A recent twist in Ripple’s ongoing legal saga has seen the U.S. court urging Ripple Labs and its top executives, including CEO Brad Garlinghouse, to consider a fresh approach that may alter XRP’s trajectory significantly. Here’s what’s unfolding:
Court’s Suggestion for Alternative Resolution
In an unexpected move, Judge Phyllis Hamilton proposed that Ripple and the plaintiffs explore a “voluntary dismissal without prejudice” rather than seeking a direct ruling on class action claims. Such a dismissal allows the claims to be potentially refiled individually after the class action appeals, introducing an added layer of uncertainty for Ripple and its community.
November 4 Deadline Looms
Ripple now faces a strict timeline: by November 4, the parties involved must either present a revised proposal to the court or confirm their decision not to comply with the court’s suggestion.
Key Dates on the Horizon
Pretrial Conference: December 19, 2024
Jury Selection and Trial Commencement: January 21, 2025
Additionally, the SEC’s pursuit of charges against Ripple executives Garlinghouse and Larsen is advancing, with final briefs anticipated by January 15, 2025.
Ripple’s Strategic Crossroads: What’s at Stake
If Ripple agrees to this alternative path, it might avoid an extended courtroom battle, potentially stabilizing XRP’s market sentiment. However, declining this option could heighten legal pressures, leaving XRP vulnerable to further volatility and legal exposure.
With every twist and turn, XRP’s future remains precarious, as Ripple faces critical decisions that could reshape its path forward.
