It is a retrial of the first one. The civil case by the SEC.
The first trial was a hung jury. As the paper said at the time, the SEC reserved the right to retry it rather than drop it.
I would suspect the trial will before the end of the year. The investigation and discovery should have been done in the first trial, unless one side has something new.
The SEC just hopes to present the same case to a different jury that can come to a unanimous conclusion in their favor. Obviously, Ron hopes the opposite.
Actually, the SEC, IMO, knows that a small fry company and an individual that has limited wealth (flat broke) cannot afford any more litigation, after 2 trials already. They are being a financial bully, knowing that rmcp and Ron will soon run out of money and not even be able to defend themselves. They win that way.
It is like Intel or Apple ( or Becton Dickinson) stealing a patent and telling the true owner to 'Sue me", knowing that they can spend millions on court costs and kill the case in some state of financial ruin.
Hope that helps. I don't have any more resources than you...google, sec.gov, etc.
