Judge Analisa Torres is directing both parties to prepare for this next phase, aiming to address outstanding matters in the case. Notably, these matters will examine the accountability of Ripple's executives.

Last month, on July 13, the court partially accepted and partially rejected the motions for summary judgment filed by both sides. This meant that not all issues were resolved, necessitating the upcoming jury trial.

By Aug. 23, both Ripple and the SEC have been instructed to submit potential blackout dates for the trial.
