Court Permanently Enjoins Attorney William J. Reilly in Fraudulent Sale of Securities
Litigation Release No. 21252 / October 16, 2009
SEC v. Forest Resources Management Corp., et al., Civil Action 09 Civ. 903 (JSR) (SDNY)
Court Permanently Enjoins Attorney William J. Reilly in Fraudulent Sale of Securities
The Securities and Exchange Commission announced that on October 15, 2009 the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York entered a judgment on consent against defendant William J. Reilly, of Boca Raton, Florida, an attorney admitted to practice in New York. Without admitting or denying the allegations of the Commission's complaint, Reilly consented to the entry of judgment, entered by Hon. Jed S. Rakoff, that permanently enjoins him from further violations of Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act and Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. The judgment permanently bars Reilly from serving as an officer or director of any public company, and from participating in an offering of any penny stock. Finally, the judgment provides that Reilly will disgorge his ill-gotten gains and prejudgment interest and pay a civil penalty in amounts to be determined by the Court.
The Commission's complaint alleges that Reilly and others made material misrepresentations concerning Forest Resources Management Corp. to Forest's transfer agent in order to obtain millions of restricted shares without the required restricted legend. A registration statement was never in effect for the shares issued to Reilly and his nominees. Reilly and his nominees then sold these unlegended shares on the open market, falsely holding them out to the investing public as free-trading shares, when in fact they were restricted stock. Reilly received more than $84,000 from the improper sale of these shares. In addition, Reilly filed a Form 8-K with the Commission on behalf of Forest which Form 8-K falsely represented that Forest had acquired substantial timber rights in Central America.
The litigation is continuing to determine the amount of disgorgement, prejudgment interest, and civil penalties against Reilly and the other defendants, Chaim Justman and Pinchus Gold.
For further information, see Litigation Release No. 20878 (Feb. 2, 2009), Litigation Release No. 20980 (Mar. 31, 2009), and Litigation Release No. 21080 (June 11, 2009).

U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
FTRM
Litigation Release No. Civil Action 09 Civ. 903 (JSR) (SDNY)
SEC v. Forest Resources Management Corp., et al., Civil Action 09 Civ. 903 (JSR) (SDNY)
Securities and Exchange Commission Charges Forest Resources Management Corp. with Fraud
The Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") announced today that it filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York alleging that Forest Resources Management Corp. ("Forest"), Chaim Justman ("Justman"), William J. Reilly ("Reilly"), and Pinchus Gold ("Gold") defrauded investors, and reaped approximately $800,000 in unlawful profits by fraudulently procuring unlegended, purportedly free-trading shares of Forest stock, and then selling these shares to the investing public after Forest's false and misleading material misrepresentations and omissions about its business operations artificially increased demand for that stock.
According to the Complaint, Forest is and was a public shell company that at all relevant times had no income or assets. From June through October 2006, Reilly, Justman and Gold acted together to make material misrepresentations to Forest's transfer agent that provided false justification for the transfer agent to issue millions of restricted shares to Justman, Reilly, Gold, their nominees and others without the required restrictive legend. Justman, Reilly, Gold and their nominees were thus free to, and did, place these unlegended shares in brokerage accounts they controlled, and sold many of these shares in the open market, falsely holding them out to the public as free-trading shares, when in fact the shares were restricted stock. A registration statement was never in effect for these transactions in Forest's stock
The Complaint further alleges that Justman, Reilly and Gold sold more than a million shares of the improperly unlegended shares to the investing public, after Forest, Justman, and Reilly began issuing a series of false statements to the investing public regarding Forest's assets and commercial prospects. For example, Forest, through Justman and Reilly, misrepresented in a filing with the Commission and in press releases that Forest, based on a share exchange agreement that it had purportedly entered into with a company called Opus Management Group, Ltd., held valuable timber properties in Central and South America. These statements were false because Forest had not entered into any signed agreement with Opus, and because Opus had not direct or indirect ownership of timber properties.
Reilly is a New York City attorney living in Boca Raton, Florida. Justman and Gold both live in Brooklyn, New York.
The Commission's complaint charges Forest, Justman, Reilly, and Gold with violations of Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C. §§ 77e(a) and 77e(c), and with violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. § 77j(b), and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, 17 C.F.R. § 240.10b-5.

How does pinksheets tell you that, felix?
this one is interesting but according to pinksheets it has been really pumped
Gotcha. I'll leave you alone, then! (:
I'm not in this one nor do I have an interest in this company at this time, just responding to your posts.
I saw that one, dealer! lol. That's why I asked what brought you "back". Nice move for you today.
I had a bid in this morning at .30 but, it jumped over it real fast. Hopefully, it'll settle back some and I can get it later.
I'd like to know more about the company first, though. Doesn't seem to be anyone around that can offer anything, huh?
as you can see I was here in October. You responded to one of my posts and I responded...that's all. I can't remember where I got my tip from.
Didn't catch that! lol!
If you haven't done any dd on it, what brought you to the board tonight?
I hope someone shows up eventually! I want to know more.
My question about NEOM is part of my signature in mocking of a Board Member. I haven't done any DD of this company.
You have me confused with someone else, dealer. I'm not in neomedia. What brought you back to this board tonight?
What I've seen so far with this stock, I like a lot.
Has anyone in this made contact with the company? Anyone?
boy, I completely forgot about this company, thank goodness. I don'tknow why the sudden drop since last month. Maybe CSHD took down a lot of penny stocks. Maybe investors pulled their money out because of the huge risk involved.
Saw the news on this today and just starting to do some dd. Has anyone come up with a short synopsis of what the company is about? Share structure? Financials? Why the meltdown?
etc, etc, etc?
I got an e-mail alert about this comapny. I will be watching this one. I'm in CSHD so I can't get into anything else. Waiting for a pps reset or pop on Monday.
