In the Matter of
James J. Pasztor
Opinion of the Commission
Broker-Dealer Proceeding
Ground for Remedial Action
Failure to Supervise Reasonably
Branch manager of broker-dealer, who was also compliance officer,
failed reasonably to supervise registered representative who aided,
and abetted, and caused a manipulation effected by her customer. Held,
it is in the public interest to suspend branch manager from
association in a supervisory or proprietary capacity with any broker
or dealer for a period of three months.

I.
The Division of Enforcement appeals from the initial decision of an
administrative law judge dismissing an administrative action against
James J. Pasztor. Pasztor was, among other things, branch manager and
compliance officer of Voss & Co., Inc. ("VCI") at the time of the
events at issue. The Division alleges that Pasztor failed reasonably
to superviseSharon M. Graham, a registered representative at VCI. We
base our findings on an independent review of the record, except with
SNIPPETS:
