In its move on Friday, the SEC stated that it wanted to seal some of the details from the reply briefs from August 30 in order to support earlier requests by the SEC and Ripple to exclude expert testimony from the SEC.

“The SEC’s proposed redactions are intended to protect the identities of the SEC experts,” the SEC said.

The SEC filed a complaint against Ripple in December 2020, claiming that the company sold over $1.38 billion worth of XRP, the native coin of the XRP Ledger developed by Ripple Labs, in an unregistered securities offering.

Additionally listed as co-defendants by the SEC for allegedly aiding and abetting Ripple’s crimes were the CEO Brad Garlinghouse and executive chairman Chris Larsen.
