17-1099
Issues: (1) Whether the “anti-spoofing” provision of the Dodd-Frank Act, 7 U.S.C. § 6c(a)(5)(C), is unconstitutionally vague; and (2) whether placing genuine open-market orders that could be and, in some instances, were executed can constitute commodity fraud under 18 U.S.C. § 1348(1) based solely on the trader’s purported intent in placing the orders.
