Moments after the decision, many strategies the SEC might employ to delay giving the information to Ripple were outlined.

The SEC might file a motion asking Judge Torres to rethink her order, ask her to certify an appeal of her judgment, or ask the Court of Appeal for a Writ of Mandamus to postpone providing the records to Ripple.

SEC’s Decision is Still Unclear

James K. Filan, a former federal prosecutor, stated in a recent tweet that the SEC has two days to petition Judge Torres to reconsider her ruling on the matter.

He added that the deadline for submitting a motion for review of Judge Torres’ decision regarding the SEC’s objections to the Hinman documents would be October 13.

Hinman, a former director of the SEC’s Corporation Finance, played a crucial role in the SEC’s legal battle with Ripple. The disagreements stemmed from his 2018 speech, in which he labeled Ethereum as a non-security.

Every attempt to get the SEC to give the documents to Ripple has met with resistance. Many are curious as to what the SEC will do after Judge Torres ordered the agency to provide Ripple access to Hinman’s materials.
