Former Mayer Brown partner Joseph Collins, already sentenced to seven years in prison, has settled final charges with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The SEC alleged that Collins aided and abetted a financial fraud by substantially assisting Refco in its failure to disclose hundreds of millions of dollars in related party indebtedness. The judgment, to which Collins consented without admitting or denying SEC allegations, enjoins him from violating Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Former Mayer Brown partner Joseph Collins, already sentenced to seven years in prison, has settled final charges with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The judgment against Collins, to which he consented without admitting or denying SEC allegations, doesn’t have much sting. He’s simply enjoined from violating Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The rule bars the use of manipulative and deceptive practices in the purchase or sale of securities.
