<h4><strong>Judge Shelby found the SEC abused its authority, resulting in fines for the regulatory body.</strong></h4> 
<p>The court order mandates the SEC to pay approximately $747,000 to a court-appointed receiver.</p> 
<h5><strong>SEC Fined for Abuse of Authority</strong></h5> 
<p>This substantial sum reflects the extent of the legal proceedings and the costs associated with the receiver’s involvement. Judge Shelby’s decision comes on the heels of previous sanctions against the SEC. He deemed it a “gross abuse of power,” citing false statements by the SEC’s legal representatives.</p> 
<p>As part of the ruling, the SEC is obligated to pay nearly $600,000 to Debt Box, the crypto platform embroiled in the lawsuit. These fees and costs serve as restitution for the platform’s legal expenses incurred throughout the litigation process. The sanctions mandate the SEC to cover all attorney fees and costs from the ex parte relief.</p>
