NEW YORK, March 28 (Reuters) – A U.S. judge ended a hearing

on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s proposed $602

million settlement with a unit of SAC Capital Advisors without

making a decision on whether to approve it.

U.S. District Judge Victor Marrero in Manhattan said he was

considering whether to condition approval of the settlement on

the outcome of a pending appeal by Citigroup Inc of

another judge’s rejection of a $285 million SEC settlement.

“What the court is suggesting here is not extraordinarily

novel,” he said.
