LOL! Dead wrong. It is a civil suit. Because it is a civil suit, the SEC doesn't need to "prove" a whole hell of a lot of anything to have Bordynuik disgorge his ill-gotten gains.

"The standard of proof in a civil lawsuit is significantly easier to satisfy than the “beyond a reasonable doubt” standard of a criminal case. In a civil lawsuit, the case must be proved by a “preponderance of the evidence,” that is, by enough evidence to conclude that it is more likely than not that the victim’s claims are true"
