UTAH’s Chief Justice Threatens SEC with Sanctions
After losing its lawsuit against crypto company DEBT Box, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) was forced to admit that some of the claims made by SEC lawyers in support of the lawsuit were “false or misleading”. One of these allegations was that DEBT Box was trying to move its assets abroad by closing its bank accounts in June 2023. However, DEBT Box’s lawyers argued that this claim was not true and that in fact the bank accounts were closed on or before January 2023. Another allegation was that DEBT Box prevented investigators from viewing certain social media pages. However, given the SEC’s characterization of the investigations as “confidential”, this claim is also thought to be untrue. The fact that these allegations were false or misleading helped the SEC obtain a temporary restraining order (TRO) against DEBT Box. However, the TRO was dissolved in October.
