SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
Washington, D.C.
Litigation Release No. 15382 / June 10, 1997
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION v. TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL,
LTD., ET AL., United States District Court for the District of
Columbia, Civil Action No. 1:96CV00025 (D.D.C., January 11,
1996)(JR)
The Securities and Exchange Commission today issued an
administrative order (the "Order") barring Kyle Weston (the
"Respondent") from association with any broker, dealer,
investment adviser, investment company or municipal securities
dealer. In its Order, the Commission found that the Respondent,
a former securities salesman with Technology International, Ltd.
("TIL"), was permanently enjoined from violating the antifraud
provisions of the federal securities laws. The Commission's
order also found that Respondent sold unregistered securities to
investors while acting as an unregistered broker-dealer and,
consequently, willfully violated Section 15(a) of the Exchange
Act.
Weston consented to the entry of the Order without admitting
or denying the Commission's findings, but admitting to the entry
against him of a Final Judgment by the United States District
Court for the District of Columbia, on February 25, 1997,
permanently enjoining the Respondent from committing future
violations of the antifraud provisions of the federal securities
laws and the provisions barring sales of securities by
unregistered broker-dealers. Final Judgments permanently
enjoining David Rockwell and Albert Weston, also former TIL
salesmen, from violating these provisions were also entered by
the Court on the same date. In addition to the Judgments
described above, Final Judgments were entered against TIL
(February 28, 1997), enjoining the company from violating the
same provisions of the federal securities laws, as well as the
registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 and the
Exchange Act's periodic reporting requirements; TIL Chairman Neil
Garfield (September 5, 1996), enjoining him from future
violations of the registration, antifraud and broker-dealer
provisions; and TIL's former Chief Financial Officer B.J. Thomas
(March 11, 1997), who was enjoined from violating the antifraud
provisions. The defendants consented to the entry of the Final
Judgments without admitting or denying the allegations contained
in the Commission's complaint in SEC v. Technology International,
