   Martin P. Russo of Kurzman Eisenberg Corbin Lever & Goodman, LLP for

   BEFORE      Carol Fox Foelak, Administrative Law Judge

SUMMARY

   This Initial Decision bars Richard P. Callipari from association with
   any broker-dealer. It is based on his 2003 conviction for fraud and
   for endeavoring to obstruct a Commission proceeding. He had engaged in
   a scheme with Thomas J. Connolly to free-ride in options. Callipari
   was accountable for $428,000 of the $2.39 million in losses to
   Fidelity Investments caused by Connolly's trading. Previously,
   Connolly defaulted.
