Checked against the primary document on October 2, 2026. The library's summary, tags and figures for this record were compared with the regulator's own document by an AI model (Claude) following written instructions, with sampled and disputed records read a second time.

In May 2017 an SEC administrative law judge issued an initial decision vacating the Commission's September 2016 temporary suspension of Med-X, Inc.'s Regulation A offering exemption, finding that the company's late annual report and sales while delinquent were inadvertent. The proceeding concerns offering compliance, not price manipulation.

A dash means the release did not state a figure we could extract, not that the figure is zero. Penalty and disgorgement are stored separately so aggregates across the library do not double-count the same dollars.

What is alleged to have happened

the Securities and Exchange Commission announced this matter on May 8, 2017 as release 3-17551. The respondent named is Med-X, Inc. (0 individuals, 1 entity). The action was brought in the SEC administrative law judge.

The decision concerns a Regulation A cannabis-company offering that the Commission suspended after a delinquent annual report, and it lifts that suspension. The pump-and-dump reference in the decision is a legal citation, not a finding about Med-X. This library carries no technique tag on this matter.

The conduct is recorded against equities.

Non-monetary relief recorded: registration bar.

The action was dismissed. We keep dismissed matters in the library precisely so that the outcome is visible alongside the original allegation.
