Abstract

On April 6, 1912, the Commission instituted an injunctive action in the United States District Court for the Northeastern District of Ohio alleging, among other things, that Barry L. Kessler, an accountant, violated antifraud provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by recommending to his clients and others the purchase of orange grove investment contracts of American Agronomics Corporation ("Agronomics") without disclosing that he was paid a substantial fee for each sale consummated. Without admitting or denying the allegations in the Commission's complaint, Kessler consented to entry of a permanent injunction in that action enjoining him from fraudulent conduct in connection with the purchase and sale of securities of Agronomics or any other issuer.
