NCLA Asks Ninth Circuit to End SEC’s Illegal Gag Rule
Manage episode 425426002 series 2879282
NCLA has submitted an opening brief in Powell v. SEC, urging the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit to overturn the SEC’s refusal to amend its long-standing "Gag Rule." The rule, in place for over five decades, prohibits individuals who settle regulatory enforcement cases with the SEC from publicly criticizing their cases, even truthfully, for life. NCLA represents SEC enforcement targets affected by this rule and media organizations seeking to report on their experiences.
After NCLA's initial petition challenging the Gag Rule was ignored for more than five years, the SEC only responded with a denial after NCLA filed a renewed petition in December. NCLA is now challenging this denial to stop the SEC from infringing on First Amendment rights.
Mark, Jenin, and Senior Litigation Counsel Peggy Little discuss the case and the detrimental impact of the SEC's Gag Rule.
