The recent complaint is an addition to a year-old lawsuit against Ripple, though this time the complainants are quoting the SEC’s recently released “Framework for ‘Investment Contract’ Analysis of Digital Assets” and are pursuing to outline XRP as unlawful unregistered security under the framework.

The recent filing also maintains that Ripple debased California’s false advertising and unfair competition laws by purportedly “blurring differences between Ripple’s enterprise solutions and XRP to further drive demand,” and “paying exchanges to list XRP, limiting the supply of XRP to drive demand” among other things.” Ripple has until September 19th, 2019 to reply to this recent filing.

The complainants are requesting class-action status on behalf of all investors of XRP. Other prominent petitions for liberation include requiring the court to identify XRP as security and reimbursing for indemnities sustained by the complainants and (putative) class members.

Besides, the amended petition intends to link XRP back to Ripple Labs, although the latter publicly claims that Ripple is not the emitter of XRP and has no links to the XRP blockchain.
