Municipal Securities Cases and Materials:
Supplemental Text (2004 - 2007 Cases)
Office of Municipal Securities
Division of Market Regulation
August 2007
This compilation was prepared by the Office of Municipal Securities in the Division of Market Regulation of the Securities and Exchange Commission and supplements the Municipal Securities Cases and Materials Text that was issued in December 2003. This supplement is current through July 2007. It contains the full text of certain Commission orders/opinions, administrative law judge decisions, and litigation releases, as well as federal court decisions, involving participants in municipal securities transactions. In some instances, the document is a determination of fact and law following a hearing; in others, findings made by the Commission in a settled proceeding in which the named party has neither admitted nor denied the findings, but consented to entry of the order. In still other instances, such as a complaint, the document may consist of allegations.
The compilation organizes enforcement actions by relevant participants to municipal securities transactions or topics. However, inclusion under a particular heading does not limit in any manner the relevance of the document to other participants or topics.
While this compilation provides an extensive review of Commission activity in the municipal securities market, it does not purport to be exhaustive. It also does not include actions by private parties under the federal securities laws arising from municipal securities transactions, or Commission and private actions under the antifraud and other sections of the federal securities law arising from transactions not involving municipal securities. Such materials may also be useful to the reader.
The reader is encouraged to consult the web site maintained by the Commission at http://www.sec.gov for future releases.
