The post Tether and Bitfinex Win Final Judgment in Frivolous Lawsuit! appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News The judge’s decision to dismiss a frivolous class action lawsuit against Tether and Bitfinex has been finalized, as the plaintiff, Shawn Dolifka, chose not to appeal. Judge Laura Taylor Swain denied Dolifka’s motion to amend his complaint, which claimed that Tether’s stablecoin was not backed by reserves. The lawsuit was deemed entirely meritless, and further litigation would not have benefited Dolifka or his lawyers financially or otherwise. Tether and Bitfinex have consistently rejected such baseless litigation attempts.

존 리드 스타크(John Reed Stark) 전 미국 증권거래위원회(SEC) 인터넷 집행국장이 최근 자신의 X(구 트위터)를 통해 "SEC는 테라폼랩스와의 소송에서 큰 승리를 거둘 것"이라고 전망했다. 이와 관련 그는 "테라폼랩스-SEC 소송의 담당 판사인 제드 라코프(Jed Rakoff)는 앞선 리플-SEC 소송에서의 약식판결 내용을 받아들이지 않을 것이다. 그는 리플-SEC 약식판결 내용에 대해 정중하면서도 분명하게 수용 거부 의사를 밝혀왔다. 현실은 약식판결 단계를 넘어 향후 디지털 자산에 대한 증권법 적용 문제를 다룰 때에도 그는 강경한 입장을 고수할 것"이라고 설명했다.

Self-proclaimed Bitcoin developer Craig Wright won a case over a multibillion-dollar Bitcoin dispute in a U.S. court on Thursday. The appeals court ruled that a Florida jury correctly noted that the self-proclaimed cryptocurrency developer did not cooperate with David Kleiman when they jointly mined Bitcoin. The appeal court judge said the district court's comments "deliberately obstructed" the legal process. It is reported that in the case of Kleiman v. Wright, the plaintiff is David Kleiman’s brother Ira Kleiman. The latter accused Wright of forging documents with the intention of transferring the Bitcoins (approximately 1.1 million); Ira Kleiman believed that half of them should belong to David Kleiman, so he filed a lawsuit.

코인텔레그래프에 따르면 리플(XRP)에 우호적인 호주 변호사 빌 모건(Bill Morgan)이 최근 X(구 트위터)를 통해 "미국 증권거래위원회(SEC)가 리플 판결에 항소하더라도 승소할 확률은 3~14%에 불과하다"고 밝혔다. 그는 "과거 SEC가 항소해 승소했던 데이터를 바탕으로 제레미 호건 변호사가 분석한 결과 SEC가 승소할 확률은 14.2%였다"며 "이외에 리플이 미등록 증권판매와 관련 하위 테스트의 두가지 기준을 충족하지 못했다는 것 외에 명백한 항소 이유가 없다. 따라서 SEC의 항소 승소 확률은 3%로 매우 희박하다"고 강조했다.

According to Cointelegraph, U.S. surveillance and facial recognition firm Clearview AI has won a court appeal in the United Kingdom after being accused of alleged infractions related to the U.K’s general data protection regulation (GDPR). Originally, the company was fined nearly $10 million for breaches of the U.K.’s GDPR in May of 2022. The recent victory will see that fine rescinded unless the U.K.’s Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) further appeals the ruling.Per a U.K. court tribunal led by Tribunal Judge Lynn Griffin, whether Clearview AI ran afoul of GDPR is immaterial due to the jurisdictional limits on applying GDPR to foreign companies. According to court documents released Oct. 17, the U.K’s ICO doesn’t have the jurisdiction to offer GDPR protection to its citizenry in this case. In essence, it appears as though the appeal’s approval sets a legal precedent wherein the U.K. court system’s stance on enforcing GDPR has been relegated to only those companies firmly within the U.K.’s purview.In contrast, Clearview AI has been sued and fined multiple times in Europe via the E.U. 's GDPR with fines being levied in France, Italy, and Greece. In Sweden, the local police authority was fined more than $300K for its illegal use of Clearview AI products in 2021. However, regarding these and other judgments, Clearview AI has managed to avoid following the court’s orders in at least some instances. Despite, for example, being fined $20 million for GDPR breaches in France in October of 2022, the company refused payment and was found in breach of that order as of May of 2023.Currently, Clearview AI holds what appears to be a unique position within the U.S. tech ecosystem. Despite continuing allegations that its software and services violate civil rights and privacy protections afforded all U.S. citizens, the company’s close ties with law enforcement have, according to some experts, afforded it a level of protection inconsistent with U.S. laws against unwarranted surveillance and the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. As such, it is nearly impossible for most people to have their data removed from the company’s datasets and systems. Individuals outside of certain U.S. states have, so far, no explicit recourse to have their images, likeness, and other data removed from the company’s dataset.
