i like the "the shareholders believe there is good reason for CMKX's failure to file ".. No kidding, and the reason s are varied.. stupidity, inability to read the rules, lost documents, etc, etc. Good reasons?? I'd say they are excellent reasons for failing to file.. not acceptable to a hardliner like Brenda Murray, but certainly reasons.
When one looks at the trading records in this stock, it appears that there have been more shares traded than what has been acknowledged by CMKM Diamonds, Inc. as issued and outstanding shares.
One wonders who "one" is and "appears" does not seem very precise language with which to persuade a federal judge.
But I give them marks for making the attempt at getting NSS in front of the judge. What possible relevance that has to not filing for two years escapes me.

Upon a showing that such a stay is in the public interest or for the protection of investors, the motion for stay shall be favored. A stay granted under this paragraph (c)(3) may be granted for such a period and upon such conditions as the Commission or the hearing officer deems appropriate.
