Can the lawsuit be restarted after five years? Lawyers dismiss SEC's rumors of re-filing against Ripple using "res judicata"
【CryptoWorld】Veteran American lawyer Bill Morgan recently stepped forward and used the legal concept of “res judicata” to pour cold water on the rumors. Recently, there have been speculations that the SEC might refile charges against Ripple, but Morgan straightforwardly said that this is simply impossible.
The background is as follows: Democratic members of the House of Representatives accused the SEC of withdrawing 12 cryptocurrency cases, involving major players like Ripple, Kraken, and Coinbase. Some say these withdrawals are related to political donations. But Morgan’s view is very clear—the five-year-long lawsuit was settled when Ripple ultimately won in 2025, and the matter is now settled.
What does “res judicata” mean? Simply put, once a court issues a final judgment on the same matter, it cannot be tried again. Morgan invoked this principle, effectively blocking the SEC from making a comeback from a legal standpoint. For Ripple and the entire crypto industry, this interpretation is a reassurance.
