XRP Lawyer Deaton Files Amicus To Join Another Ripple 诉讼
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) lawsuit against Ripple Labs is not the only battle the company is currently fighting. In fact, there is a court case that has been under trial for a longer period of time: The class action lawsuit filed by XRP investors against Ripple Labs and CEO Brad Garlinghouse, which has been pending since November 2018.
The case, which is being heard in the US state of California, is led by lead plaintiff Bradley Sostack, with three lawsuits (Zakinov, Oconer, and Greenwald) consolidated into one. The plaintiffs accuse Ripple of selling XRP as an unregistered security and seek damages for losses suffered from the sale and alleged promises by Ripple. In addition, the plaintiffs are asking the court to also classify XRP as a security.
A New Player In The Ripple Vs. Zakinov Case
约翰·E·迪顿 (John E. Deaton) 律师已经参与了各自的案件 amicus简介 ，在 Ripple vs. SEC and LBRY vs. SEC cases, is now getting involved in this case as well. As prominent criminal defense attorney James Filan writes in a series of 鸣叫, Deaton is filing an amicus brief in Zakinov vs. Ripple.
Filan 写道，拟议的类别将包括世界各地的 XRP 持有者，包括 75,890名 in the SEC case who have joined Ripple’s arguments and disagree with the plaintiffs in Zakinov, saying that XRP is not a security.
Moreover, the proposed class action is not limited to direct sales by Ripple, but extends to all sales of XRP, including secondary sales and international sales in countries where the token has already been classified as not a security.
Deaton 在他的动议中辩称，由于这些冲突，并且只有少数持有者声称 XRP 是一种未注册的证券，而全球范围内有更多的代币持有者声称它不是，因此法院不应对该类别进行认证。

同为社区律师的弗莱德·里斯波利 (Fred Rispoli) 对迪顿的举动表示掌声，他表示：“熟悉集体诉讼，集体认证之战是此类案件中最重要的斗争。约翰以这一身份来到这里对原告的律师来说是一个真正的打击。我并不反对约翰的观点，但踢球这一点怎么强调都不过分。”
迪顿则在推特上评论了菲兰的声明， 说:
无论是 SEC 还是原告律师都提出了荒谬的论点，即代币的二级市场交易也是证券，只是因为它之前可能以违反《证券法》第 5 条的方式提供或出售，我会看看你在法庭上。
