Why should the SEC do anything but wait to see how the discovery for this case goes? NWBO will be doing a lot of work that will benefit the SEC if and when it decides to start an investigation. SEC has limited resources so letting NWBO do much of the heavy lifting makes good sense.

Besides if NWBO wins the case, the penalties are likely to be much higher than if the SEC was to investigate and settle a case. If the SEC finds criminal wrong doing all it can do is refer the case to the DOJ.
