The fight between Ripple and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) continues without an end in sight. Judge Sarah Netburn has set a timetable for the latest step in the case.

Recently, defense lawyer James K. Filan announced that Judge Netburn has set a schedule for Ripple's Motion to Dismiss the SEC's Compensation and Final Decision Request. According to Filan, the SEC has until April 29, 2024, to respond to Ripple's motion, with Ripple given three days to reply afterward.

Ripple had previously challenged the SEC's "new expert opinions" by Andrea Fox, calling them untimely "sandbags." Additionally, Ripple argued against the SEC's Preliminary Injunction and Final Decision Request, disputing the $2 billion damages claim related to alleged XRP sales.

In a separate development, Judge Netburn's appointment as a U.S. District Judge for the Southern District of New York was met with approval from the crypto community. XRP advocate Bill Morgan praised her decisions in the Ripple v. SEC case, suggesting she deserved the appointment.

Amidst the legal proceedings, Ripple's cryptocurrency XRP is currently valued at $0.5172, experiencing a slight decrease of 0.60%. Over the past month, XRP has dropped by 16%, though there has been a 3% increase in the last week. Despite a decrease in trading volume by 20%, XRP's market capitalization stands at $28.5 billion.

In summary, Ripple and the SEC continue to spar in court, with Judge Netburn overseeing the latest developments. Meanwhile, the value of XRP fluctuates amidst ongoing uncertainties surrounding the case.
