Legal analyst Jeremy Hogan predicts that the Ripple vs. SEC legal battle will come to a conclusion in July, based on a pattern of major rulings being issued roughly every nine weeks by Judge Torres. However, Hogan clarified that this is not a definitive forecast, but rather an observation of the current trend. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse expressed optimism about the upcoming court ruling, stating that he is highly confident of seeing the verdict delivered within this year, and stressing the importance of a recent court ruling that denied the SEC's attempt to redact certain information. Garlinghouse also expressed concern that the SEC is prioritizing politics over sound policy, leading to a flight of entrepreneurs and companies to foreign jurisdictions.
