CESV SEC Litigation:
https://www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/2017/34-81307.pdf
I doubt we will ever see a penny.
The defendants have no assets in the U.S. and I believe that the company has ceased all operations, which I did not see coming. Please, anyone, correct me if I am wrong. This information is per a lawyer of one of the class action lawsuits that has since withdrawn from the case.
I'm a bagholder to the tune of 23 thou USD. I should have gotten out when the informal SEC inquiry was first opened. I think there was at least a week after that before the trading halt.
At least there is a silver lining to this cloud which is that through the CESV message board I found out about JST, where I have made up my losses and more, so I won't have to commit suicide.
You can read the 14 page SEC complaint recently filed..Please keep posted if anyone hears more about how we are going to received money! Thanks BVdog

CESV charged by SEC with fraud and delisted from PINK SHEETS. You just cannot get more worse then this.
Thanks, I wish I would have read that and followed up with additional DD before investing. There's nothing like learning the hard way.

HomerRomer, please see my previous posts on this thread regarding substantial fraud issues that had been circulating for some time about CESV's accounting and original reverse-merger acquisition that enabled it to be listed in the US.
It looks to me that the only charge against the company is that there was illegal insider trading activity. I have not seen anything regarding misleading sales or earnings which I would consider a much more serious issue.
I did not buy this stock because of their management. I bought because of what still seems to be a "no-brainer" consumer energy savings product that to my knowlege is still very much in demand and profitable.
Now that those "insiders" are gone, is CESV opperating as usual other than extra legal fees? I know that this has scarred CESV, but IMO it should be something that time, sales, profitablity, relisting, and possibaly a dividend can fix down the road. Until I hear something that would make me think otherwise, I don't see the point in selling at $.50.
HomerRomer
Well, this cow got thru the gate. Not a pretty sight either. Left all my skin behind. Lost every trading profit made since January and then some. Not much left to say after that.
Starshine
Yeah casino gamble today. could 300x to $1.20 easy.
Hmmmmm wonder if this can pull a bounce tomorrow.
My sell order was never filled. At .50 it's hardly worth dumping so I'll just see what happens next. Sometimes it's good to have a sense of humor about these things.
LOL - You made my day! Very cute.
Starshine
I'm not seeing anything in either my accounts or Yahoo Finance about a name change. Will the ticker remain the same - CESV.PK?
The temporary trading suspension is to be lifted at 11:59 PM on June 02, 2006. So it should start trading again Monday, June 05?
That should be fun trying to get your orders filled. It'll be like 50 cows trying to get thru a one cow gate.
Starshine
Ditto what skinnymini said!
I just hope it starts trading again so I can get rid of it!!!
Could it be that it will now be trading on the pink sheets, could that be it?
Looks like we're getting a name change. Scottrade is indicating a change on my account.
COMMISSION ANNOUNCEMENTS - SEC SUSPENDS TRADING IN THE SECURITIES OF CHINA
May 19, 2006 (SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION RELEASE/ContentWorks via
COMTEX) -- The Commission announced the temporary suspension, pursuant to
Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), of
trading in the securities of China Energy Savings Technology, Inc. (China
Energy), a Nevada corporation headquartered in Hong Kong, at 12:01 a.m. EDT on
May 19, 2006, and terminating at 11:59 p.m. EDT on June 2, 2006. The Commission
temporarily suspended trading due to concerns that certain China Energy
affiliates and shareholders may have unjustifiably relied upon Rule 144 of the
Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act) in conducting an unlawful distribution
of securities that failed to comply with the resale restrictions of Rule 144 of
the Securities Act. The Commission is also concerned that China Energy may have
unlawfully relied upon Form S-8 of the Securities Act to issue unrestricted
securities. Questions also have arisen regarding the accuracy and completeness
of information contained in China Energy's public filings with the Commission
concerning, among other things, statements regarding the company's shareholder
base. The Commission cautions brokers, dealers, shareholders, and prospective
purchasers that they should carefully consider the foregoing information along
with all other currently available information and any information subsequently
issued by the company. Further, brokers and dealers should be alert to the fact
that, pursuant to Rule 15c2-11 under the Exchange Act, at the termination of the
trading suspension, no quotation may be entered unless and until they have
strictly complied with all of the provisions of the rule. If any broker or
dealer has any questions as to whether or not he has complied with the rule, he
should not enter any quotation but immediately contact the staff in the Division
of Market Regulation, Office of Interpretation and Guidance, at (202) 551-5760.
If any broker or dealer is uncertain as to what is required by Rule 15c2-11, he
should refrain from entering quotations relating to China Energy's securities
until such time as he has familiarized himself with the rule and is certain that
all of its provisions have been met. If any broker or dealer enters any
quotation which is in violation of the rule, the Commission will consider the
need for prompt enforcement action. (Rel. 34-53839)
I guess all is not lost yet. That 100% loss sure does look bad in my portfolio though.

Abraham Fruchter & Twersky LLP Announces Class Action Suit Against China Energy Savings Technology, Inc.)
NEW YORK, NY, May 19, 2006 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- Abraham Fruchter &
Twersky LLP today announced that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in
the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf
of purchasers of China Energy Savings Technology, Inc. ("China Energy") (NASDAQ:
CESV) common stock during the period between April 21, 2005 and February 15,
2006 (the "Class Period").
The complaint charges China Energy and certain of its officers and directors
with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. China Energy engages in
the development, manufacture, sale, and distribution of energy-saving products
for use in commercial and industrial settings in the People's Republic of China.
The complaint alleges that during the Class Period, defendants issued materially
false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business and financial
results. As a result of defendants' false statements, China Energy stock traded
at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period. On February 15, 2006,
after the market closed, the NASDAQ announced that trading was halted in China
Energy stock for "additional information requested" from the Company at a last
price of $6.82. As of May 18, 2006, trading in China Energy's stock remained
halted.
According to the complaint, the true facts, which were known by the defendants
but concealed from the investing public during the Class Period, were as
follows: (a) the Company's accounting department suffered from material
weaknesses and deficiencies and lacked the necessary staff and resources to
perform its required functions; (b) contrary to representations contained in the
Company's SEC filings, the Company's internal controls were inadequate and
easily manipulated; (c) the Company lacked effective internal controls in its
financial reporting process required to enable it to properly analyze and/or
estimate China Energy's future financial and operational performance; (d) China
Energy was improperly recognizing revenue associated with its long-term
energy-sharing service agreements by recognizing revenue before it was earned
and realizable; (e) China Energy's January 2006 private placement was fraught
with self-dealing; and (f) China Energy was experiencing inside and/or self
dealing transactions in the Company's stock by insiders, its executives and/or
members of its Board of Directors which could lead to trading of its stock being
halted by the NASDAQ.
Plaintiff is represented by Abraham Fruchter & Twersky LLP and seeks to recover
damages on behalf of all purchasers of China Energy common stock during the
Class Period (the "Class"). If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must
meet certain legal requirements set forth in the applicable law and file
appropriate papers with the Court no later than 60 days from May 1, 2006. You do
not need to seek appointment as a lead plaintiff in order to share in any
recovery. Under certain circumstances, one or more Class members may together
serve as lead plaintiff. You may retain Abraham Fruchter & Twersky, LLP, or
other counsel of your choice, to serve as your counsel in this action or you may
choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member.

respect to this matter, please contact plaintiff's counsel: Jack G. Fruchter,

It has moved to the pinks but trading is still suspended.
http://www.pinksheets.com/quote/quote.jsp?symbol=cesv
Yahoo Finance is saying that the ticker has changed to CESV.pk.
Etrade shows my shares at $0.00 now. I've never had a stock delisted before and don't know what to expect. The company is still in business. Will the stock resume trading on the pink sheets now or is that investment completely wiped out?

China Energy Savings To Be Delisted From Nasdaq Friday)
WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--China Energy Savings Technology Inc. (CESV) said Thursday that it will be delisted from the Nasdaq Friday morning, and that its auditor, its top executives and all its directors have resigned.
In the exchange's notice of delisting issued to the Hong Kong company on May 10 and filed Thursday with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Nasdaq staff said the company would be delisted for potential violations of the exchange's rules.
The two rules the Nasdaq letter cited were Rule 4330 and 4420. According to the exchange's Web site, Rule 4330 requires listed companies to disclose material information within a "reasonable period of time," and Rule 4420 governs quantitative thresholds for listing, such as minimum income, minimum number of shares outstanding, and minimum price per share.
The company, which develops energy-saving products, said it doesn't agree with the exchange's determination, but that it wouldn't request a hearing.
The company also said all its directors, its chief executive, chief financial officer and corporate secretary had resigned by April 28. The company's auditor, Moore Stephens Wurth Frazer & Torbet LLP, resigned last Friday.
Former director Paul Risberg was the first director to resign, on March 28. Upon his resignation, Risberg said he disagreed with the company's "approach in communicating with its shareholders during the current stock trading halt" and its "compliance with generally accepted accounting principles," according to the filing.
The other six directors and top executives resigned without giving a reason in the filing.
Trading in China Energy Savings stock was halted by Nasdaq Feb. 15, and the exchange requested information from the company. The SEC also began an informal, nonpublic investigation into the company.
No further details about the company's potential violations of exchange rules were available in the filing.
