Rubicon Financial Incorporated v. Grant Bettingen

from 11/09 10q

In July of 2009, we filed our first amended complaint in the Superior Court of the State of California, for the County of Orange – Central Justice Center (Case Number 30-2009-00124138-CU-BC-CJC), against Grant Bettingen and Grant Bettingen, as Trustee of the 1999 Bettingen Trust U/D/T October 8, 1999, seeking damages for:


1.
Breach of Contract;

2.
Fraud;

3.
Declaratory Relief;

4.
Breach of Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing; and

5.
Unjust Enrichment.

These claims arise from the June 2008 merger between us and Grant Bettingen, Inc. (now known as Newport Coast Securities, Inc.) On or about August 10, 2009, we were served with a suit from M. Grant Bettingen, the Bettingen 1999 Trust and Christi Bettingen stemming from the same transaction and alleging 31 causes of action. These two cases have been consolidated. We believe the Bettingen claims have no merit. As of the date of this filing, we are continuing to aggressively pursue this action.

Rubicon Financial Incorporated v. Marc Riviello

In August of 2009, the Company filed a complaint in the Superior Court of the State of California, for the County of Orange – Central Justice Center (Case Number 30-2009-00294992-CU-BC-CJC), against Marc Riviello seeking collection of the $100,000 due and payable pursuant to a promissory note due June 1, 2009. The case is currently pending.

GENERAL ALLEGATIONS

34. This case involves the continuing saga of a ring of serial stock manipulators, criminals, frauds and con-men, all of whom are seeking to get rich quick on the hard work and money of innocent people like the Plaintiffs in this matter and the investing public. See SEC v. Dynkowski, et al, United States District Court, District of Delaware, Case No. 09-361, filed on or about May 20, 2009; U.S. Department of Justice press release, “Seven Indicted in ‘Pump and Dump’ Stock Schemes,” Dated May 21, 2009 (Collectively attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit “A”; and United States of America v. Dynkowski, Mangiapane and Riviello, United States District Court, District of Delaware, Criminal Action No. 09-23-UNA, Second Superseding Indictment, filed on or about April 16, 2009 (attached hereto and incorporated herein byreference as Exhibit “E”). The callousness of the individually named Defendants’ actions towards the Plaintiffs demonstrate their complete disregard for the health and welfare of those around them, the victims’ families and dependants, and shocks the conscious. Moreover, despite knowing of the fraudulent and criminal activities of members of their Boards of Directors, officers and key personnel as stated above and detailed below, neither the executives nor the Boards of Directors of Defendants RUBICON or GBI (NEWPORT COAST SECURITIES, INC.) have taken any corrective action, but have, in fact, ratified all of the illegal, fraudulent, criminal and/or negligent activities of their respective Boards of Directors, officers and key personnel as herein set forth.

RUBICON FINANCIAL, INC. LITIGATION

http://rubiconlitigation.com/

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We may, from time to time, be named as defendants in various judicial, regulatory, and arbitration proceedings in the future in the ordinary course of our business. The nature of such proceedings may involve large claims subjecting us to exposure. In addition, claims may be made against our broker-dealer subsidiary relating to investment banking underwritings, which may be brought as part of a class action, or may be routine retail customer complaints regarding losses in individual accounts, which are ordinarily subject to FINRA arbitration proceedings. Our broker-dealer subsidiary may also become subject to investigations or proceedings by governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations, which can result in fines or other disciplinary action being imposed on the broker-dealer and/or individuals. Additionally, legal proceedings may be brought against us from time to time in the future. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of legal proceedings, particularly where the plaintiffs seek substantial or indeterminate damages or where novel legal theories or a large number of parties are involved, we cannot state with confidence what the eventual outcome of currently pending matters will be, what the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters will be or what the eventual result in each pending matter will be.

The recipients had the opportunity to speak with Registrant’s management on several occasions prior to their investment decisions.
