Securities and Exchange Commission v. Nutra Pharma Corporation, Erik Deitsch, and Sean Peter McManus
On September 28, 2018, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York (Case No. 2:18-cv-05459) against the Company, Mr. Deitsch, and Mr. McManus. The lawsuit alleges that, from July 2013 through June 2018, the Company and the other defendants defrauded investors by making materially false and misleading statements about t and violated anti-fraud and other securities laws.
The violations alleged against the Company by the SEC include: (a) raising over $920,000 in at least two private placement offerings for which the Company failed to file required registration statements with the SEC; (b) issuing a series of materially false or misleading press releases; (c) making false statements in at least one Form 10-Q; and (d) failing to make required public filings with the SEC to disclose the Company’s issuance of millions of shares of stock. The lawsuit makes additional allegations against Mr. McManus and Mr. Deitsch, including that Mr. McManus acted as a broker without SEC registration and defrauded at least one investor by making false statements about the Company, that Mr. Deitsch engaged in manipulative trades of the Company’s stock by offering to pay more for shares he was purchasing than the amount the seller was willing to take, and that Mr. Deitsch failed to make required public filings with the SEC. The lawsuit seeks both injunctive and monetary relief.
On May 29, 2019 (following each of the defendants filing motions to dismiss), the SEC filed a First Amended Complaint which generally alleged the same conduct as its original Complaint, but accounted for certain guidance provided by the United States Supreme Court in a case that had been recently decided. Each of the defendants then moved to dismiss the SEC’s First Amended Complaint. On March 31, 2020, the Court entered an Order granting in part and denying in part the various motions to dismiss. Following that Order, the SEC filed a Second Amended Complaint (the operative pleading) and the defendants have filed their answers which generally deny liability. At this time, discovery is closed and the SEC has indicated an intent to file a summary judgment motion regarding certain non-fraud claims asserted in its Second Amended Complaint. The defendants have opposed the SEC’s request to file such motion(s). The Court conducted a hearing on February 23, 2021 and set an initial briefing schedule for the SEC’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment wherein the Plaintiffs’ Motion for Partial Summary Judgment was due on April 5, 2021, the Defendants’ Consolidated (i.e., collectively, Nutra Pharma Corporation, Erik “Rik” Deitsch, and Sean McManus) Response Brief to the SEC’s Motion was due May 3, 2021, and the Plaintiffs’ Reply Brief was due on May 19, 2021. On March 23, 2021, the Plaintiff filed a Motion for Extension of Time to file the Motion for Partial Summary Judgment. On April 9, 2021, the Plaintiff filed a Motion for Partial Summary Judgment, Defendants’ filed a Memorandum of Law in Opposition to Plaintiff’s Motion on May 7, 2021, and Plaintiff filed its Reply brief on May 21, 2021. On August 31, 2022, the Court entered an Order Granting in Part and Denying in Part the SEC’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment. Specifically, the Court granted the SEC’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment on Claim 7 (Section 5 of the Securities Act) against the Company and Mr. Deitsch, Claim 8 (Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-2(a) thereunder) against Mr. Deitsch, Claim 9 (Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 16a-3 thereunder) against Mr. Deitsch, and Claim 10 (Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13a-11 thereunder) against the Company, but denied the SEC’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment on Claim 14 (alleged aiding and abetting Nutra Pharma’s violation of Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act, and Rule 13a-11 thereunder) against Mr. Deitsch. The remedies pertaining to the claims addressed in the SEC’s Partial Summary Judgment will be determined by the Court at a later date. On September 16, 2022, Mr. Deitsch filed a Motion to Supplement his Initial Disclosures pursuant to Rule 26(a)(1) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and to re-open discovery for the limited purpose of obtaining discovery from certain Nutra Pharma shareholders identified by Mr. Deitsch in his supplement to the initial disclosures. The Magistrate Judge assigned to the case granted Deitsch’s Motion on that same day and discovery has been re-opened on a limited basis. When the discovery in the case is complete, the case will proceed to trial on the remaining claims in the SEC’s Second Amended Complaint that were not addressed in the SEC’s Partial Summary Judgment. Nutra Pharma disputes the allegations in this lawsuit and continues to vigorously defend against the SEC’s claims. Mr. Deitsch and Mr. McManus have similarly defended the lawsuit since its filing and each contest liability. The Company does not believe that it engaged in any fraudulent activity or made any material misrepresentations concerning the Company and/or its products.
Read the filings. Of course they are in business.
It never was in business... It was a scam of selling shares and now that stopped.
Thanks for those rules in protecting the would be buyers here
Tell S*m to close the door behind him, LOL
Hey buddy, thank you for your concern, but the area we are in is fine. The rain is impacting us very very little.
Once the litigation process starts for civil procedures it can go on indefinitely.
I followed one that took 6 years and the 2 defendants both were banned for 5 years from being involved in securities.
Deitsch hasn't won anything of value in the Motions he has filed.
Why don't you post all of the good news from the SEC complaint.
Obviously, I have followed many more OTC scams than you - and I know how this story ends.
IG
For some reason......
I don't think were following the same case.
Its going to be a loss for the sec. You watch. And the civil suit cant go on much longer. But you would know that if you are following the case.
Excellent post!
That is too funny - "The other is the secs knife went dull from cutting and is looking to negotiate their losing civil suit."
The SEC is beating the brakes off of Deitsch.
There has been 2 complaints dismissed because the pumping crew Deitsch hired put in the Disclaimer at the end of the videos. If you think those are victories then you have read or followed many SEC complaints.
There will be a settlement and Deitsch will be banned from any securities work for at least 5 years.
Deitsch can't afford any litigation that keeps dragging on - the SEC can keep going for years.
2 brokerage firms closed Deitsch's accounts for attempting to manipulate the price - he isn't very bright because his plan wasn't well thought out.
IG
Re:
Thats one opinion. The other is the secs knife went dull from cutting and is looking to negotiate their losing civil suit.
From my post July 2020:
Maybe… the last two motions are joint motions, so it seems like they’re talking…
Happy New Year RANGOLEGEND! MAYBE SETTLEMENT. GREAT NEWS!!
A settlement would be ideal. Fingers crossed!
Happy new year K9narc! Enjoy the snow!
Looks like ric needs more time.
Joint MOTION for Extension of Time to File Joint Pretrial Order by Erik Deitsch.
What is the importance of a pre-trial order?
Pre-trial is the stage of a court proceeding before the trial. The importance of pre-trial is that it allows the parties to explore the possibility of an amicable settlement or a submission to alternative modes of dispute resolution.
We wait some more....
Still hope for a settlement....
Happy New Year.
I wonder what this NEW court extension is about.
.0001 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Soon .00000000001 , LOL
Merry Christmas, Holter!
Now that is Funny Luna Tic. Merry Christmas to you and all my fellow losers on this board. Even to the ones that have no hope for NPHC during this festive time with our families.
Snakes hibernate in the winter.
Whats going on here guys?
Did all of Rik's snakes go extinct? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA
where are all of them longs scooping up them cheapie .0001 shares...... Stopped believing eh?!!
Hey Deitsch, how about an update on the CE removal - don't be scared Homey - just the facts.
Are you going to settle with the SEC or are you "taking it to the Box"?
Stop hiding and inform shareholders of the company status.
IG
It is what I have said many times.
from 2020
This also gives traders plenty of warning, and plenty of time to get out......unless they are idiots.
There is only a few that still believe in Deitsch.
20 plus years as the CEO and he hasn't accomplished anything of value.
He has never had a profitable quarter.
Deitsch had problems with the FDA.
And now he has real problems with the SEC.
You just keep believing in Deitsch - donate money to his defense fund but he is already using funds from his toxic funding to fund the defense - but he can always use more money.
IG
Luna, I read that in Federal Court 97% of the cases end in a Plea deal.
I suspect that Deitsch enters into a Plea agreement - they are pretty standard - banned from securities for at least 5 years - and a financial penalty.
IG
Has Deitsch gone into hiding? But it is guaranteed that he will be banned from any securities work for 5 years at least.
IG
I would guess it was a MM buy that is what happens when there is a deal to sell on the Ask.
No one would buy NPHC - too many problems.
IG
But someone still bought.
It was probably a sell, and they let you do that.
I thought You could not purchase NPHC shares on TD Ameritrade?
Why won't my 2 mil get bought lol
Oops. Make that TD Ameritrade…. And someone bought another cool million. 2 million in one day??
According to TS Ameritrade, someone just bought 1,000,000 shares of this junk. Good luck.
He desperation of some if incredible lol. 100% agreed, Rik and co are gone. Glad I wasn't a sheep and believed the hype after all the failed audit deadlines. Pays to think for yourself
Good luck with that theory. The se. Is going to need it for wasting so much time. Like I said before, someone there will be getting fired.
Again in plain easy to understand English there is nothing that says deitch sold any shares. Try again.
Deitsch is screwed - the SEC already has 4 Summary Judgements against Deitsch.
The fraud charges are set for trial and the SEC case is a slam dunk as Deitsch has already lost.
In Federal Court they always offer to settle - to expedite the case because they are going to win.
Deitsch will be banned from securities for at least 5 years.
There was never any contracts with India or China - that is fraud.
IG
Deitsch is so ignorant of the Securities Laws he was doing wash trades and it seems you didn't read the Complaint the SEC filed or you would have known that Deitsch was doing wash trades with his stock ergo he was selling his stock and back at a higher price - securities fraud.
"On the call, Broker B’s representative told Deitsch that his trading appeared to be manipulative:
[The] home office…got in touch with me…. They said that the way you’re
trading, 100 shares of a low-priced security and paying the commission you are, it looks to the regulators like you might be manipulating or moving the price of the stock and they kind of wanted me to find out why you’re making the 100-share transactions of a very low price security.
205. Making it clear that he had traded for the purpose of moving Nutra Pharma’s stock price up (purportedly to prevent short sellers from lowering the stock price), Deitsch replied:
The market makers have a shorting algorithm and they walk a stock down….
If someone right now bought [the stock] up to 13.2, …they would raise the ask—it would push the algorithm up, ok, so they’d stop shorting the stock. If no one does, if there’s weak volume, what they do is keep lowering the ask and they crush the stock….. So if you do nothing else but tickle the ask with 100 shares, 200 shares, they go away. I have market makers that do that for me, and every once in a while I do it myself. (Deitsch is admitting he is manipulating the price - the SEC will ask for proof of the names of the MMs who are committing fraud for Deitsch).
206. The representative told Deitsch that “the way our regulators view it, it looks like you’re trying to manipulate or stabilize the price of the stock.”
207. The representative then told Deitsch that she would pass his explanation along to Broker B’s home office and that “they could, in effect, close the account down.”
Deitsch is such a clown that he is always talking about the MMs shorting and they have an algorithm for doing it and he says he does it himself.
So it is far worse than just selling his stock he attempting to manipulate the price.
IG
It seams to me that some are blaming the world abut when it comes to Rik they stop at all costs....
By the way the CE is still on.... Dead in the water, HAHAHAHAHAAA
AND at trips!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good job rik??????????????????????
more BS. even the SEC doesnt show anywhere in their case that deitch sold any shares. maybe you can enlighten everyone about that wild accusation.
Prove it. what an opinion that was.

Nutra Pharma Corp. (OTC: NPHC) is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the acquisition, licensing and marketing of homeopathic treatments and ethical drugs for the management of pain, neurological disorders, cancer, auto-immune and infectious diseases. Nutra Pharma, through its RectoPharm subsidiary, carries out basic drug discovery research and clinical development and also seeks strategic licensing partnerships to reduce the risks associated with the drug development process ReceptoPharm is developing technologies for the production of drugs for HIV and multiple sclerosis (MS), and also offers small and start-up biotech companies a full range of contract research services.
Investment Highlights
Corporate Strategy
Nutra Pharma's over-the-counter (OTC) products allow the company to achieve profitability and fund longer-term clinical trials in the therapeutic area. The therapeutics address a market size of > $10 billion, while the OTC products segment addresses a market size of $200 million - $500 million.
Reducing Risk
Nutra Pharma's strategy aims to optimize risk and return. At present, the company has a line of OTC products that bring in cash. This revenue will not only help fund development of the company's therapeutic line but, since sales of the OTC line and therapeutic line are uncorrelated, will result in a smoother revenue stream. By having what is, essentially, two businesses under one roof, Nutra Pharma mitigates risk to shareholders.
Revenue in the Short-term from OTC products
The OTC line comprises a number of analgesics. In October 2009, Nutra Pharma launched its first, called Cobroxin®, an over-the-counter pain reliever designed to treat moderate to severe chronic pain. In May 2010, the company launched its second consumer product, called Nyloxin®, an over-the-counter pain reliever that is a stronger version of Cobroxin.® And in December 2014, it launched Pet Pain-Away, an over-the-counter pain reliever designed to treat pain in cats and dogs. Nyloxin is currently being distributed both domestically and internationally via network marketing through the nationwide distributor Lumaxa.
Maximizing Return with a High-Value Therapeutic Line
Through its wholly owned subsidiary, ReceptoPharm, Inc., Nutra Pharma conducts drug discovery research and development activities. Nutra Pharma's R&D pipeline consists of several novel therapies in various stages of development to prevent and or treat multiple sclerosis (MS), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN), herpes, and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). And the company is pursuing, aggressively, regulatory approval for these treatments.
Nyloxin
Nyloxin is an anti-inflammatory, non-toxic, non-narcotic, non-addictive, non-steroidal analgesic designed for chronic pain relief. It was first launched as an oral spray for treating back pain, neck pain, headaches, joint pain, migraines, and neuralgia, and as a topical gel for treating joint pain, arthritis pain and pain from repetitive stress.
Since the beginning of 2014, it has been moved by the over 3,000 distributors in the Lumaxa network. Nutra Pharma is approved to distribute Nyloxin in India and is currently negotiating with large distributors throughout the region. Nutra Pharma is also working with several potential distributors in China and expects orders in India and China in the near future.
Nyloxin is clinically proven to treat Stage 2 (moderate to severe) and Stage 3 (severe) chronic pain. It is safe, non-narcotic and non-addictive, and does not impair cognitive function. Nyloxin is available in three strengths and 12 SKUs. In Regular Strength, Nyloxin is offered as an oral spray, a topical roll-on, and a topical gel. These same three preparations are offered in Extra Strength. The company also plans a 'Military Strength' Nyloxin for U.S. government buyers and military personnel.
Nyloxin Advantage
Jeff Gottfurcht is the first person in the world with rheumatoid arthritis to scale Mount Everest. Jeff reached the summit on May 14, 2011. He took Nyloxin with him as his pain reliever of choice.
Testimonials
Nyloxin Topical Gel I'm a massage therapist I have incorporated Nyloxin into my pain therapies with unbelievable results. I believe in this product so much that I became a distributor just so my clients can live pain free. - Steve Smith | |
Nyloxin Extra Strength Topical Gel I have never written a testimonial before. I have to tell you I am completely amazed at how well this product has worked for me. I have been on hydrocodone for years. Four days after taking this I have not needed it. I truly am shocked at the difference this has made in my pain. I have already reordered! - Elyse Feldberg | |
Nyloxin Oral Spray I am amazed at how well the Nyloxin spray has worked for me. I have had headaches for years, which sometimes turn to migrains. I have done biofeedback, been in the medical care of neurologists, and gone through testings, nothing I have tried has ever gotten rid of my headaches for any length of time, until I tried the Nyloxin spray. I even went to the mountains last weekend at 6,000 feet, for 3 days without a headache the whole time, I don't remember that ever happening. I am sold on this product. - Nancy Leamons |

Pet Pain-Away
Pets Owned in the U.S.: 95.6 million cats, 83.3 million dogs
The market for pain relief in dogs and cats is more than $200 million.
Millions of pets suffer from acute or chronic pain. While acute pain is a normal sensation triggered in the nervous system to alert your pet of possible injury and the need to take it easy, chronic pain is different, chronic pain persists. Pain signals keep firing in the nervous system for weeks, months, even years.
Historically, pain relief products for pets have been shown to cause other significant healthcare concerns and side effects.
Today, cobra venom is successfully being used for treating various forms of pain, autoimmune and neurological disorders. The Nutra Pharma subsidiary, ReceptoPharm, and other researchers have definitively proven that extracts from cobra venom contain constituents that control pain and inflammation in animals.
Pet Pain Away provides all-natural anti-inflammatory analgesic pain relief that is non-toxic, non-narcotic, non-steroidal and contains no aspirin or acetaminophen. Safe to use on pets, it treats conditions that cause chronic pain in animals.
Current Medical Research of the Available Remedies
Current pain relief products for pets such as NSAIDs (just for dogs) such as Carprofen (Novox or Rimadyl), Deracoxib (Deramaxx), Etodolac (Etogesic), Firocoxib (Previcox), Meloxicam (Metacam ) or Tepoxalin ( Zubrin) have been shown to cause kidney, liver, or digestive problems. Cats do not tolerate NSAIDs of any kind well. The only approved NSAID for cats in the United States is meloxicam and it is only approved for a single post-surgical injection to relieve pain. The dose must be exactly correct for the cat's weight. If it is given longer to cats, it often causes severe kidney damage.
Other medications such as Amantadine, Gabapentin and Tramadol may cause upset stomach, decreased heart rate, panting, and constipation. Veterinarians may prescribe stronger opiates only for a short periods. They usually don't prescribe steroids for pain, as they can have serious side effects. Veterinarians are usually hesitant to utilize pain therapies in companion animals because of the following: significant side effects, including nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, itching, constipation and respiratory depression; buildup of tolerance to analgesic requiring higher dosage over time to experience same effect; addictive properties that include severe withdrawal symptoms.
Therapeutic Pipeline
ReceptoPharm's research and development pipeline consists of several novel therapies in various stages of development to prevent and or treat multiple sclerosis (MS), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN), herpes, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and pain.
Abbreviations
Phase 1 (P-I), Phase 2 (P-II), Phase 3 (P-III)
RPI-78M
RPI-78M is derived from alpha-cobratoxin (α-CTX) by an oxidative procedure. Alpha-cobratoxin is the primary neuroactive peptide found in the venom of Asiatic cobras, and it represents the single active ingredient in the formulation under investigation. RPI-78M compares favorably with competing products. It lacks measurable toxicity, but is still capable of attaching to and affecting the target site on the cells. This means that patients cannot overdose.
Following years of investigations in humans and animals, it has displayed no serious adverse side effects. Patients experience symptomatic improvements, usually within six months of therapy. RPI-78M is extremely stable and resistant to heat, and so has a long shelf life. The drug's stability has been determined to be over four years at room temperature. It is easy to administer as a daily intramuscular injection (mcg dosing). RPI-78M has completed two trials for its use to treat adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN). And at present, there are about 300 multiple sclerosis patients on open-label trials with RPI-78M.
RPI-MN
Nutra Pharma has received Orphan Drug Status from the FDA for RPI-78M as a candidate for the treatment of juvenile MS. Nutra Pharma is actively seeking collaborative research partners for early stage trials of RPI-78M in the treatment of juvenile multiple sclerosis (MS). The company has already been in contact with potential researchers, hospitals and sites of care for the purpose of moving forward with phase I/II clinical studies.
Nutra Pharma believes that RPI-78M provides an entirely new approach to the treatment of auto-immune diseases, including MS. As an immuno-modulating agent and not an immunosuppressive, RPI-78M could be a disruptive new drug entity in the autoimmune disease space. In previous open-label studies, RPI-78M has shown consistent symptomatic improvements within a period of less than six months in all stages of MS. The recently received Orphan Drug designation from the FDA allows the company to fast-track efforts through the clinical process. Based on existing clinical experience with RPI-78M, Nutra Pharma is confident that it can receive accelerated approval in a relatively short time-frame (expected in as little as 22-26 months).
RPI-78
Market Opportunity
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there are currently about 1.2 million persons in the United States over the age of 13 who are human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected. Over the past 10 years the number of people living with HIV has increased. The incidence of new HIV infections has remained fairly stable, however, at about 50,000 new cases every year. As yet there is no cure for HIV: no compound has been isolated that kills the pathogen. But antiretroviral therapies (ART) can reduce the ability of the virus to reproduce and so keep infection at a level that does not overwhelm the immune system. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that, currently, there are about 37 million people worldwide living with HIV. The market size of antiretroviral therapies is estimated to be around $15 billion.
Like HIV, multiple sclerosis (MS) occurs when the immune system malfunctions. MS develops when the immune system attacks the protective sheath (myelin) that covers nerve fibers and causes communication problems between the brain and the rest of the body. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society estimates that about 2.3 million people are affected by MS worldwide. The market size of the MS drug market is about $16.7 billion. Adrenoleukodystrophy (AMN), also known as Schilder's disease and sudanophilic leukodystrophy, is another condition in which the myelin sheath is damaged. The AMN market has the potential to reach $400 million after the launch of an effective treatment. The Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) affects thousands. According to the CDC, in 2013, some 306,000 persons visited a doctor for the first time in connection with a herpes condition. And the CDC also reports that, in 2007, about 1.5 million people in the U.S. were living with rheumatoid arthritis.

During our second quarter of 2015 and thereafter, the following has occurred:
On April 15, 2015 we provided an update regarding plans to market Nyloxin® through S.Zhaveri Pharmakem for distribution throughout India. The update stated that our management had been working in Mumbai throughout the week to finalize plans for the national rollout of Nyloxin®.
On April 20, 2015, our stockholders voted at a special meeting of the shareholders held in Coral Springs, Florida to approve a one-for-forty reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Under the adopted proposal, each forty shares of our presently issued and outstanding Common Stock as of the close of business on the effective date was converted automatically into one share of our post-Reverse Split Common Stock. Fractional shares and "odd lots" were rounded up to the nearest whole share. The Reverse Split did not change the number of authorized shares of our Common Stock. The principal effect of the Reverse Split was the reduction in the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, from 1,510,950,321 shares as of March 6, 2015 to 39,123,758 shares after the Reverse Split was deemed effective. The Reverse Split affected all of our shareholders uniformly and did not affect any shareholder’s percentage ownership interest in Nutra or any shareholder’s proportionate voting power.

On May 26, 2015 we announced that we had engaged Medical Strategy Consultants, LLC to aid the company in the filing of Orphan Drug applications with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). The first application under development is for the treatment of Pediatric Multiple Sclerosis with the Company's lead drug candidate, RPI-78M. In order to create the application, RPI-78M needed to meet several key criteria. This included preclinical data in support of the drug that provided a reasonable rationale for the treatment of the disease based on its potential ability to treat the symptoms of multiple sclerosis. The FDA grants Orphan Drug Designation status to products that treat rare diseases, providing incentives to sponsors developing drugs or biologics. The Orphan Drug Act of 1983 is intended to assist and encourage companies to develop safe and effective therapies for the treatment of rare diseases and disorders, defined as those affecting fewer than 200,000 Americans at any given time. The designation of RPI-78M as an Orphan Drug would provide Nutra Pharma with a 7-year period of market exclusivity in the U.S. upon approval of the drug, as well as tax credits for clinical research costs, the ability to apply for grant funding, clinical trial design assistance, assistance from the FDA in the drug development process and the waiver of Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) filing fees which could be in excess of $2.5 million. The decision to proceed with an Orphan Drug Designation submission is part of Nutra Pharma's plan to move forward with the preparation of an Investigative New Drug Application.
