FINRA Bars Carter for Refusing to Hand Over Documents
After receiving an external tip, FINRA initiated a separate investigation into the theft allegations surrounding Carter on August 5, 2019. FINRA requested certain documents and information from Carter, who failed to respond by the specified deadline. Two weeks later, the regulator issued a second request, which Carter also ignored.
Carter’s attorney discussed the matter with FINRA staff on August 27, 2019 and acknowledged that Carter had received the requests and confirmed that his client would not be supplying the documents and information. By refusing to furnish documents, Carter violated FINRA Rules 8210 and 2010. He was handed a permanent bar from the industry as a result.
