Stuart Alderoty, the Chief Legal Officer of Ripple Inc., took to Twitter to highlight a pivotal development in the appeal of the SEC vs Govil case which can significantly affect the lawsuit between <a href="https://markets.coinpedia.org/xrp/">Ripple</a> Inc. and the <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/ripple-vs-sec-lawsuit-settlement-speculations-will-the-xrp-price-hit-new-heights/">U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission</a>.&nbsp; 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-stuart-alderoty-s-tweet">Stuart Alderoty’s Tweet</h2> 
In his tweet, <a href="https://x.com/s_alderoty/status/1778445159870726511">Alderoty </a>highlights the significance of the Second Circuit Court of Appeals’ refusal to reconsider their decision in the SEC vs Govil case.&nbsp; 
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"> 
 He highlights a crucial aspect of the ruling, stating, “if a buyer suffers no financial loss, the SEC is not entitled to disgorgement from the seller.”&nbsp; 
</blockquote> 
This statement resonates particularly with the tension prevailing in the SEC’s irrational demand of a $2 billion file from Ripple for the unregistered contractual sale of XRP tokens and the profit gained with them. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-bill-morgan-s-insight">Bill Morgan’s Insight</h2> 
Responding to Alderoty’s tweet, lawyer Bill Morgan provides deeper insight into the SEC’s position and its potential impact on Ripple. Morgan explains the SEC’s reliance on the Govil decision, emphasizing the agency’s pursuit of disgorgement based on alleged financial harm to investors.&nbsp; 
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"> 
 Morgan writes, “The SEC alleges that had <a href="https://x.com/Belisarius2020/status/1778589955025236254">Ripple </a>registered the sales it would have needed to disclose the discounts offered to favored-institutional investors to the non-favored institutional investors which would have allowed them to negotiate better terms.” Meaning that “even if they did not incur losses they could have done better.” 
</blockquote> 
The failure of the SEC’s appeal in the Govil case is a positive development for Ripple’s legal defense. Ripple could leverage this ruling to challenge the SEC’s claims regarding institutional investor losses and the basis for disgorgement.&nbsp;
