You are wrong as a settlement will allow the defendants to forgo establishing their behavior as forbidden though new case law. That's what will happen when they lose. There's also the concept that spoofing already remains illegal whereas New York juries are typically hostile to Wall Street. This case will not go on for years as the defense further does not want to risk a whistleblower coming forward which could embolden the SEC or even perhaps the DOJ. It's a very bad time for the defendants politically to have this case get widespread attention which seems very likely after our approval this year. After MTD denial they will seek a settlement.
