<p>The ongoing lawsuit between Binance and the <a href="https://www.sec.gov/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Securities and Exchange Commission </a>(SEC) reached a significant turning point on June 28 with a major ruling. Judge Amy Berman Jackson dismissed several charges against Binance, providing some temporary relief for Binance exchange.</p>

   <p lang="en" dir="ltr">Amy Berman Jackson, a U.S. District Judge in the District of Columbia, has dismissed several charges brought by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) against Binance Holdings Limited and its founder, Changpeng Zhao (CZ).<br>The charges dismissed relate to secondary market … <a href="https://t.co/SbBrXO0tvo" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/SbBrXO0tvo</a></p>— Parrot Coin (@parrot_coins) <a href="https://twitter.com/parrot_coins/status/1806974751740473635?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">June 29, 2024</a>

<p>Judge Jackson noted that factual complaints must be ‘plausible on their face’ to survive a motion to dismiss under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). However, certain key allegations were upheld.&nbsp;</p>
<p>These include <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/binance-founder-changpeng-zhao-enters-federal-prison/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">accusations against Zhao</a>, the former CEO of Binance, and the holding company for Binance, alleging that Zhao served as a ‘control person.’ Furthermore, the legal arguments concerning Binance’s potential requirement to register under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 were permitted to continue.</p>
<p>The SEC initially filed 13 charges against <a href="https://www.binance.com/en" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Binance</a> and its affiliated entities. The allegations included running unregistered exchanges, broker-dealers, and clearing agencies. They were also accused of providing misleading information about trading controls and engaging in unauthorized securities sales.</p>
<p>The dismissal of certain charges does not end the case. However, it narrows the scope of the litigation. The court filings highlight the complex nature of the case and they may establish a precedent for future regulation of digital assets.</p>
<p>Judge Jackson’s decision is similar to one made in the Ripple case, where Judge Analissa Torres <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/xrp-approaches-a-penultimate-close-in-showdown-against-the-sec/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">rejected the SEC’s argument</a> that secondary token sales constituted securities under the Howey Test.</p>
<p>The recent court decision, which dismissed some charges, has given Binance a short victory. The lawsuit continues to remain complex and crucial due to the remaining allegations. The final outcome will be critical to the regulatory future of digital assets.</p>
