The lawyers representing Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon reportedly argued in court against the allegations pressed by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The federal agency had sued Kwon for allegedly defrauding US investors by illegally offering unregistered securities.

On April 21, Do Kwon’s lawyers asked the judge to dismiss the SEC lawsuit claiming that the regulator’s acquisitions were unfounded. While requesting to dismiss the lawsuit, Kwon’s lawyers asserted that US law prohibits regulators “from using federal securities law to assert jurisdiction over the digital assets in this case,” reported Bloomberg.
