Interesting. The very same day SEC closes 2015 BLTA Investigation (3/15/16), SEC Files The Barry Clare Matter. Once again, to refresh your memory, the crux of the Barry Clare Matter is Clare acted as an unregistered broker for sales of Baltia’s common stock to investors. ( Not a SEC Required Registered Broker-Dealer).
This is very telling. Undoubtedly, the SEC conducted a very thorough investigation into BLTA. The ONLY supposed violation was that Barry Clare was not a properly registered broker when he solicited stock sales. (Mr. Clare will have his day in court)
