On Jan. 15, 2020, Ripple Labs filed a notice of motion, which tells the other side about the company's earlier motion to dismiss the XRP securities lawsuit, which was filed on Dec. 4.
The new court document was submitted by Kathleen R. Hartnett and Damien J. Marshall, the two attorneys from Boies Schiller Flexner LLP that already participate in the pending case.
The New York-based law firm was founded by none other than David Boies, one of America's most celebrated lawyers who successfully represented the U.S. government in the anti-trust lawsuit against Microsoft and famously grilled Bill Gates during his deposition.
What's next for Ripple?
Judge Phyllis J. Hamilton is yet to voice her verdict on Ripple's motion. As reported by U.Today, a minute order from the court hearing that took place on Jan. 15 stated that the matter had been taken under submission.
