Rosen court documents, 19 pages, 11/1/2023 to 5/1/2024:
Thanks to Dragon Lady, who posted this 5/2/2024. I’m reposting with a different title for easy reference.

Mike Sinensky’s restaurant chain, NY Post 4/3/2024:
Update on Mike: after his OPTI debacle, he focused on expanding his restaurants.
The article says that the restaurants are popular and are visited by celebrities.
“NYC’s hottest chain, Sushi by Bou, turns old utility rooms into elaborate 200-square-foot sushi bars.”
https://nypost.com/2024/04/03/lifestyle/nycs-hottest-chain-sushi-by-bou-turns-old-utility-rooms-into-elaborate-200-square-foot-sushi-bars/
Richie Romero “and his partners, Mike Sinensky and Erika London (Mike’s wife), have turned tiny utility spaces into a growing empire of buzzy, bento-box-sized sushi bars.”
“… Sushi by Bou, has nine locations in NYC and another 15 and counting across the U.S. and Puerto Rico.” “By next year, we should have 50 restaurants around the US.”
From other sources:
Richie Romero, a hospitality and nightlife expert, joined SimpleVenue in 2023.
From a YouTube video, Dec 16, 2021:
“Michael Sinensky is the Founder and CEO of SimpleVenue, a leader in tiny concept entertainment and hospitality venues, with over 20 years of experience as a successful entrepreneur, investor, and advisor in the hospitality and entertainment industry.
During the global pandemic, he also founded WeShield. This company distributes personal protective equipment and medical supplies to health care practitioners, Fortune 500 corporations, and government agencies.”
Roger stiffed ~40 employees by closing Bistro 7:
https://www.gofundme.com/f/recover-employees-lost-wages
“… On June 28, 2023 with no pre warning the owner Roger Pawson of Bistro 7 closed the restaurant for business while employees were in the middle of working their shift. Not only were they told they were immediately unemployed, he did not pay them any of their wages lawfully due to them. This took place 2 days before payday and at the end of the month when employees would be about to pay rent and other bills…”
“… unfortunately the owner spent more than he could afford and innocent peoples lives were greatly affected…”
Summons ordered for Roger, re: Bistro 7 lawsuit:
Roger is apparently hiding. Courts require “an exhaustive search” for the absent party before permitting publication of a summons:
https://roa.sdcourt.ca.gov/roa/
“12/06/2023 Order for Publication of Summons/Citation filed by KITCHEN, KEVIN.”
I’ve searched for the public notice several times since this entry, but haven’t found it. If anyone sees it, please share it.

Thanks, Dragon Lady, for your continued DD.
Here’s a recent post on Stocktwits by Jeko44, confirming the demise of OPTI:
https://stocktwits.com/Jeko44/message/551726508
Hi Mr Rosen. Anything you might be able to share about $opti patents that still exist as assets to the company? Thanks! 23:22 • 11/17/23
Brett Rosen • 7h
Unfortunately the patents are basically useless, the house has been sold and there aren't any other real assets in $OPTI. A whole new company will need to be put in place and rebuild that way.
Brett’s tweet: “revenue for this restitution”, 9/5/2023:
https://stocktwits.com/thehammerisback/message/543735692
Question sent to Brett (by Dave222):
“So we need to be current shareholders for any chance of recovery?”
Brett Rosen @BrettRosen325:
“Not at all. You just have to prove the hard money you put into $OPTI and then show what you took out. There will be monies set aside from revenue for this restitution. I'm sorry it's taking so long but it's better than just writing it off as a lost cause!” 7:01 PM 9/5/2023

update: Bistro 7 court dates and judge assignment:
The 2 lawsuits against Bistro 7 (Roger Pawson’s restaurant / LLC) are now scheduled to go before the same judge. Also, the dates for upcoming conferences have changed:
Case Number: 37-2023-00001788-CL-BC-NC
Case Title: TRI-CO FLOORS vs BISTRO 7
Case Type: Breach of Contract/Warrant
6/14/2023: The Civil Case Management Conference was rescheduled from 6/23/2023 to 07/07/2023 at 11:00 AM before Robert P. Dahlquist at the North County Courthouse: “Complaint Demanding More than $10,000 but less than $25,000”.
——————————————
Case Number: 37-2022-00050223-CU-OE-NC
Case Title: KITCHEN vs Bistro 7 LLC
Case Type: Other employment
6/23/2023: The Civil Case Management Conference was scheduled on 08/04/2023 at 09:00 AM at the North County Courthouse before Robert P. Dahlquist.
6/23/2023 The case was reassigned from Judge Keri Katz to Judge Robert P. Dahlquist. (Prior to that, Judge Katz was scheduled for a Status Conference on 09/15/2023 at 10:00 AM at the Central County Courthouse.)
2 lawsuits: Roger & Bistro 7 LLC:
There’s a lawsuit against Roger’s LLC for “Breach of Contract” and another lawsuit against Roger and his LLC for “Other employment”.
Tip: search for this “business name”: Bistro 7 LLC
https://roa.sdcourt.ca.gov/roa
Background info & update: Roger registered “Bistro 7 LLC” on 2/23/2021 and apparently used OPTI assets to open a restaurant in Carlsbad CA. (I’ve provided details about that before.)
The LLC is still active, but Roger missed the most recent CA SOI filing date on 2/28/2023. https://bizfileonline.sos.ca.gov/search/business
Bistro 7 restaurant in Carlsbad CA closed shortly after a “soft opening” in August 2022. The restaurant reopened as “Bistro 7 & Cannon Club” in March (based on reviews), with its grand opening 4/25/2023. IDK if Roger is currently involved. (The restaurant is located in “Cannon Court”, a planned commercial property located at the intersection of I-5 and Cannon Road in Carlsbad.)
https://bistro7carlsbad.com
There are also Facebook and Instagram accounts.
The Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce lists Roger Pawson as the contact for Bistro 7; it says “New Member” and “Member Since: 2023”. (IDK if the info is current.)

2 Lawsuits:
1. KITCHEN vs BISTRO 7 LLC (and Roger Pawson, named defendant):

- Roger Pawson is named as defendant on page 2 of the participants list.
- The “Request for Entry of Default” filed 5/17/2023 by plaintiffs was denied.
- “Status Conference (Civil) scheduled for 09/15/2023 at 10:00:00 AM at Central in C-74 Keri Katz was vacated.”
2. TRI-CO FLOORS vs. BISTRO 7 LLC:

Date filed: 01/12/2023
Case Status: Pending
Case Type: Breach of Contract/Warranty

2. West Development

I couldn’t find a link between Roger and the 2 West entities, besides the restaurant being located on the Cannon Court property. I gave up, due to multiple West family LLCs and a holding company.
Here’s the plaintiff’s flooring company website: http://tri-co.com
thanks, and clarification of post #89567:
Thanks for posting court documents and for pointing out that that Brett didn’t get a “default judgment”.
In case I confused anyone by quoting Brett in post #89567, here is the full text from a 5/27/2023 screenshot of Brett’s message, re: his lawsuit against Roger & OPTI:
“He didn’t show up and we got a default judgment. Basically we won and now we will have to see what the judgment will be.”
Instead of using the legal term “default judgment”, Brett should have said that Roger defaulted by not showing up.
Brett correctly said that he’ll have to wait for a judgment. (That should come after his lawyers submit a request for a default judgment.)
Reference:
“Guidelines for default judgments”:

Brett said he won default judgment:
H/T Matrixdreams, posted today:
I got a reply from Brett :)
Basically Roger didn't show up and he won the lawsuit. Need to wait for the details of the judgment ruling, but this is EXCELLENT news ??
He also stated the court documents are probably online by now, but I am unsure where to find those-if anyone else knows where to look besides the "Register of actions" which hasn't updated? Perhaps 3 day weekend will cause delay...

(Roger still can’t spell. )
Re: Roger’s “investigating possible” “patent” infringement:
Here’s my take on this OPTI “news”:
This is just another silly PR to pump the stock and/or to test the reaction of OPTI investors to new PRs.
“INVESTIGATING POSSIBLE OPTEC PATENTED TEMPERATURE SCANNING TECHNOLOGY INFINGEMENT BY LEADING SMARTWATCH MANUFACTURER.” https://www.otcmarkets.com/otcapi/company/dns/news/document/66061/content
Roger claims that his invention is patented. Nope, there was only a patent application that hasn’t been approved yet. Roger links to the application in his PR: https://image-ppubs.uspto.gov/dirsearch-public/print/downloadPdf/20220065699
For “patent infringement”, Roger would have wait until his patent application clears the patent office and becomes a full patent, at which point legal action could proceed.
In the PR, he lists “Investor Relations” as info@optecmpg.com. That website isn’t active: http://optecmpg.com, but this email checker says the mailbox exists: https://myemailverifier.com.
In the past, Roger has used CEO@optecmpg.com. I suspect he’s trying to look more legitimate by implying that he has an “investor relations” person/dept.
And, as others have pointed out: there are issues with the invention, the application is under Roger’s name, and it’s doubtful that Roger would share any proceeds with OPTI shareholders.
Here’s a link that’s been posted before that shows the status of Roger’s inventions (which I doubt are worth anything.). It shows Roger’s 2 cell phone applications, plus the Fuel Maximizer patent (ignore the last 2 documents, they aren’t Roger Pawson’s). https://www.patentguru.com/search?q=in=(Pawson%2C+Roger)&filter=open
For newbies, this list has many OPTI PR lies and failures: https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/OPTI/news
OPTI “news” posted today re: possible patent infringement:
FWIW. First “news” in many months:
“INVESTIGATING POSSIBLE OPTEC PATENTED TEMPERATURE SCANNING TECHNOLOGY INFINGEMENT BY LEADING SMARTWATCH MANUFACTURER.” 4/18/2023

https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/OPTI/disclosure
https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=170502520
Of course, Roger’s reports have all been full of lies and omissions. They’re worthless, except for more evidence of his scams.

3/30/2023 OPTI notice of late 2022 Annual filing:
Hi, Kebrik. Thanks for your posts.
Here’s the notice:
https://www.otcmarkets.com/otcapi/company/financial-report/363464/content
To all, FYI:
As usual, Roger Pawson will file late. He used this address:
Address of Principal Executive Office:
412 N Main Street Suite 100
Buffalo WY 82834
That’s the address used by “Buffalo Registered Agents”. (Bizapedia.com says there are 84 companies with that address.) Roger uses that address for his “Principal Office” in his Wyoming business registration, but it still shows “1385 Park Center Drive, Suite C, Vista, California 92081” as his “Mailing Address”.
And, as usual, there’s a typo in the late filing text: “Due to excessive workloads by the bookeping company for the upcoming tax year filings we will be filing our December 31, 2022 Annual report, per the extension, on or before April 15, 2023.”
For reference: Roger used an invalid address and phone number at the time of his 3Q2022 OPTI report: https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=170502520
BTW, the OPTI website has been accessible recently, but no new info that I saw. https://optecintl.com
OPTI house sold on 2/6/2023:
This says the OPTI (Roger Pawson) house sold for $2,251,623.74, which was more than the $2,232,299.73 of “unpaid balance and other charges” noted in the Notice of Trustee’s Sale.
Total Lender Solutions, Inc. was the “Duly Appointed Trustee”. That company “appointed MK Consultants, Inc. to act as an agent to conduct the trustee’s sale on the trustee’s behalf.”
Scroll down to the table, select 2-6-2023, and look for: 7961 Camino De La Dora, Rancho Santa Fe CA 92067: https://mkconsultantsinc.com/trustees-sales/
I couldn’t find the new owner’s name online, so today I called the San Diego County tax assessor’s office: 619-236-3771. I was told the new deed hasn’t been recorded yet.

add Pawson’s failed restaurant venture to the list:
Re: Deep6’s list of problems for Roger:
Reminder: San Diego County Assessor records list a 6/27/2022 Deed of Trust from OPTEC International Inc. (grantor) to “Bistro 7” (grantee).
https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=170955703
“Bistro 7” has apparently been closed since October 2022. (Based on the last reviews I’ve seen on any website. Bistro 7 website said last fall it would be closed 11/2022 for renovations, but it’s still closed.)
Now, USARestaurants.info says says “Bistro 7” is “permanently closed”. That’s not an official verdict, but it gets consumer feedback and posts online reviews.
Loopnet has listed the building for lease in the past (prior to the Pawson venture), but I don’t see it listed there now, or on other commercial leasing sites.
Here’s what I found re: probable ownership… I don’t know of any connection to Pawson:

selling price of OPTI house 6/14/2021 & “equity”:
tdbowieknife said:
Lying Roger claimed 1,300,000.00 in “shareholder’s equity.” That doesn't add up if there is still $2,232,299.73 owed and they were asking 2,750,000.00 for it. How much did he pay for that house?

OPTI house to be auctioned on 2/6/2023:
Here’s the newspaper notice for auction of “7961 Camino De La Dora Rancho Santa Fe Area, CA 92067.” Excerpts:

Recorded 3/9/2022 as Instrument No. 2022-0105377 in book , page _ of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of San Diego County, California, Date of Sale: 2/6/2023 at 10:30 AM Place of Sale: by the statue at entrance to East County Regional Center, 250 East Main Street, El Cajon, CA Amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $2,232,299.73.
You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property…
update re: Roger/OPTI’s Bistro 7 restaurant:
The restaurant that appears to be Roger/OPTI’s “Bistro 7” is late in reopening.
There was a “soft opening” on August 24, 2022. It closed for renovations after that, and its website said it would be closed until mid-November.
Later, that website notice was changed to: “BISTRO 7 WILL BE CLOSED THROUGH NOVEMBER TO FULLY COMPLETE THE RESTAURANT RE-MODEL.” But, it’s still closed.
I’ve called the restaurant several times since it closed, including today: a recorded message says: “Please enter your remote access code”. (Has the number been reassigned?)
Open Table continues to take reservations, but the most recent comments say the restaurant was closed. https://www.opentable.com/r/bistro-7-carlsbad
From my tagged post #89147:
- Roger Pawson filed on 2/23/2021 for “Bistro 7, LLC” as his restaurant LLC with CA SoS.
- San Diego County Assessor records list a 6/27/2022 Deed of Trust from OPTEC International Inc. (grantor) to “Bistro 7” (grantee).
- “Bistro 7” is at 4960 Avenida Encinas, Carlsbad, CA 92008. Phone (442) 287-8193. Website: https://bistro7carlsbad.com
Does that deed of trust transfer mean that OPTI bought the restaurant and then sold or gave it to Roger?
OPTI share structure increased by 1 billion shares:

Antonio Gargiulo@AGargiulo1983: “Ah a list to stay away from… thank you sir!” 11:29 AM · Jan 2, 2023
Brett’s response: “I will bet you my $100,000 against your $10,000 that at least 3 of the companies on that list uplist to the #NASDAQ or #NYSE in 2023! I’m 100% serious so DM me to make the bet!” 6:37 AM · Jan 3, 2023
My 2 cents: at least Brett didn’t list OPTI.
accusations today against Brett, and his responses:
Here are accusations against Brett (and to a lesser extent, Roger.)
Btw, @SECGov was copied on an “evidence” tweet that allegedly shows that Brett paid to pump OPTI:

However, Brett denies the accusations and tells a different story, saying that he was just being helpful:

Earlier today, Brett also tweeted some history re: Brett, Roger, and the Fuel Maximizer.
Get out your popcorn for these 2 threads.
Is this a copy of Brett’s derivative lawsuit?
So far, I can’t find an easy-to-read copy (e.g., Google Docs).
This may be a copy of Brett’s lawsuit, but I can’t open it. The file link appears to say: OPTI v. Pawson Complaint Conformed:

(A “conformed” copy is a true and exact copy of the original document.)
