What is alleged to have happened

On July 28, 2017 the SEC accepted a settlement with Windsor Street Capital, L.P., formerly Meyers Associates, L.P., in a proceeding that also named John David Telfer. The order finds that from June 2013 to January 2016 Meyers Associates facilitated the unregistered sale of hundreds of millions of penny stock shares without adequate due diligence, violating Securities Act Sections 5(a) and 5(c), and violated Exchange Act Section 17(a) and Rule 17a-8 on reporting. It orders a $200,000 penalty. The record previously showed the names garbled.
