Binance Vs US CFTC: Court Reveals Deadlines; Dismissal Difficult Before DOJ Lawsuit

Court Sets Deadlines in Binance Vs US CFTC Lawsuit

On July 26, the Court for the Northern District of Illinois sets deadlines for motions by defendants and plaintiffs regarding the dismissal of the US CFTC v. Binance lawsuit.

According to a minute entry, the defendants’ (Binance) motions to dismiss are due by July 27 as earlier granted by the court. However, the court has extended the plaintiff’s (CFTC) deadline to September 22, delaying Binance’s plans to dismiss the lawsuit on the argument that the court lacks jurisdiction. In addition, Binance can reply to CFTC’s response by October 23, restricting it to 35 pages in reply.

Meanwhile, jurisdictional discovery ‘stays’ while the parties file motions to dismiss the lawsuit. It means the lawsuit will remain in the court until motions are filed by both Binance and CFTC, extending the lawsuit possibly to next year.

“Any request for early jurisdictional discovery must be made by written motion and noticed for in−person presentment on the court’s regular motion call.”
