misfeasance (n.)

“misuse of power, wrongful exercise of lawful authority or improper performance of a lawful act,” 1590s, from French mesfaisance, from mesfaisant, present participle of Old French mesfaire “to misdo,” from mes- “wrongly” (see mis- (2)) + faire “to do,” from Latin facere “to make, do, perform” (from PIE root *dhe- “to set, put”). Related: Misfeasor.

ex parte

Ex parte means “from one party” in Latin. 

In the legal context, ex parte is used in several manners around ethics and civil procedure.

Legal Ethics   

In legal ethics, ex parte refers to improper contact with a party or a judge. Ethical rules typically forbid a lawyer from contacting the judge or the opposing party without the other party’s lawyer also being present. A breach of these rules is referred to as improper ex parte contact.  

Civil Procedure

In civil procedure, ex parte is used to refer to motions for orders that can be granted without waiting for a response from the other side. Generally, these are orders that are only in place until further hearings can be held, such as a temporary restraining order.   

Typically, a court will be hesitant to make an ex parte motion. This is because the Fifth Amendment and the Fourteenth Amendment guarantee a right to due process, and ex parte motions–due to their exclusion of one party–risk violating the excluded party’s right to due process. 

denizen (n.)

early 15c., “a citizen, a dweller, an inhabitant,” especially “legally established inhabitant of a city or borough, a citizen as distinguished from a non-resident native or a foreigner,” from Anglo-French deinzein, denzein, (Old French deinzein) “one within” (the privileges of a city franchise; opposed to forein “one without”), from deinz “within, inside,” from Late Latin deintus, from de- “from” + intus “within” (see ento-).

Historically, an alien admitted to certain rights of citizenship in a country; a naturalized citizen (but ineligible to public office). Formerly also an adjective, “within the city franchise, having certain rights and privileges of citizenship” (late 15c.). Compare foreign.

Of Howie Test and Security Court Cases

The Howey Test attempts to determine if there is an “investment of money in a common enterprise with a reasonable expectation of profits to be derived from the efforts of others.” If those “others” don’t promise profit or increase in price due to their efforts, but only promise real world utility/usefulness of the platform, then the coin does not pass Howie Test and is therefore not a security. Secondly, how much of the initial token is retained by team and what initial price is set for the tokens at ICO is also not part of the Howey Test, and therefore not a determinant of whether something is a security or not. So this case will fail.
