March 28, 2022 Filing 49 Electronic Clerk's Notes for proceedings held before Judge Nathaniel M. Gorton: Status Conference held by video on 3/28/2022. Counsel for the SEC inform the Court that per the status report filed on 3/25/22 (Document No. 48), the matter should hopefully be resolved in the near future. All counsel agree. The Government has no position on the SEC resolution, but it is optimistic that it will resolve the pending criminal matters. Regarding the Court's 3/31/22 reporting deadline, in which this case is reportable as over 3 years old, the Court proposes that it either stay or administratively close this civil case pending the resolution of the criminal case. All counsel assent to this. Settlement papers can still be filed at any time on the docket.
