The judge overseeing the civil case of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) against Ripple Labs plans to schedule a jury trial starting in the second quarter of 2024.

In an Aug. 9 filing in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, Judge Analisa Torres said the court would be moving forward with plans for a jury trial for Ripple, CEO Brad Garlinghouse and co-founder Chris Larsen. The judge gave a deadline of Aug. 23 for prosecutors and defense lawyers to submit blackout dates for the trial but aimed for a start date between April 1 and June 30, 2024.

Torres was responsible for ruling that the XRP (XRP) coin was not a security in regard to programmatic sales on digital asset exchanges. The court decision was not a final determination in the SEC v. Ripple case, and the blockchain firm, Garlinghouse and Larsen may still be found liable for other violations.

Coinbase, facing its own lawsuit from the SEC, cited Torres’ decision on XRP in a motion to dismiss on Aug. 4. A different judge overseeing the regulator’s case against Terraform Labs largely rejected the Ripple case ruling in a separate motion to dismiss on July 31.
