To highlight, the SEC is expected to submit its appeal brief by December 2, 2024, but it is likely the agency will request a 30-day extension, pushing the deadline to just after January 1, 2025. Ripple, in turn, is preparing to file a cross-appeal at the same time, setting the stage for both parties to argue their cases simultaneously.

Following these submissions, opposition briefs will be due by February 2, 2025. Ripple is anticipated to seek an extension, potentially moving the filing date to around March 2, 2025. Reply briefs, which allow both sides to clarify their positions, are expected to be filed by the end of March 2025.

Attorney Highlights Crucial Dates for Ripple Case

The next major phase in the process will be the oral arguments, which are likely to take place between September and October 2025. This hearing will give both the SEC and Ripple the opportunity to present their arguments before the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals.

A final ruling in the case is expected by January 2026 at the earliest, though it is more likely to be handed down in March or April of that year. This timeline provides XRP holders and investors with a clearer understanding of the long legal journey ahead, as the case could shape the future of cryptocurrency regulation in the U.S.
