US Solicitor General D. John Sauer argued in a May 30 filing that James Harper , a Coinbase user, lacks Fourth Amendment protection for his financial records stored with the exchange.

Harper sued the IRS in 2020 , alleging that the agency’s actions amounted to an unconstitutional search of his personal records.

Lower courts ruled that the records held by the exchange were business documents, not personal papers.
