RE:

COR Clearing, LLC v. E-Trade Clearing LLC: 2:15-cv-8980-JMV-JBC


Our File No: C1210

Dear Judge Clark,


As you are aware, the subpoena to E-Trade Clearing LLC (E-Trade) that COR
Clearing, LLC (COR Clearing) seeks to enforce was issued in connection with an underlying
litigation that is pending in the United States District Court for the District of Nebraska, namely,
COR Clearing, LLC v. Calissio Resources Group, Inc., Case No. 8:15-cv-317-LES-FG3. We
write now to alert you to a development in that litigation.
On April 21, 2016, the Court entered Judgment against Calissio Resources Group, LLC;
claims against the other Defendants remain pending. A copy of the Judgment is attached to this
letter. Notably, the Judgment contains several findings of significance here, including that
Calissio Resources Group, Inc. (Calissio) orchestrated a fraudulent scheme by purposely
causing the issuance of dividend ineligible shares during a due bill period without any notice to
the marketplace, hiding from DTCC the fact that such shares were not dividend eligible, thereby
causing DTCC to erroneously collect dividends on all outstanding Calissio shares, and then
failing to correct DTCCs errant due bill collection and covering up the fraud by communicating
to COR Clearing . . . that it was all the result of a glitch in the system and representing that it
was working with DTCC to correct the error. The Judgment further finds that the Calissio

Case 2:15-cv-08980-JMV-JBC Document 30 Filed 04/28/16 Page 2 of 2 PageID: 231

shares sold by Beaufort and Nobilis (through COR Clearing) were ineligible for dividends, and
therefore COR Clearing should not have been debited for due bills that erroneously attached to
those shares. Beaufort and Nobilis were the original owners of the newly issued shares for
which no dividend was due and it was their sale of these shares to third partiesincluding to the
E-Trade customers that COR Clearing now seeks to identify that triggered the erroneous due
bills, which resulted in money being deducted from COR Clearing accounts and deposited into
the accounts of third parties, including E-Trade (and ultimately, through E-Trade, the accounts of
E-Trade customers).
The Judgment is also significant in that it aptly demonstrates why COR Clearing cannot
obtain the information it needs to trace the funds unlawfully debited from it account through
Calissio. Calissio disappeared once its fraud came to light. As a result, COR Clearing is left
with no option but to seek this information from third parties, such as E-Trade, whose customers
were the unjust recipients of COR Clearings funds.
We thank Your Honor for your attention to this matter.
Respectfully submitted,

Robert P. Gammel

JUDGMENT

This matter is before the Court on plaintiffs application for default judgment
against defendant Calissio Resources Group, Inc. (Filing No. 108). Defendant Calissio
Resources Group, Inc. (Calissio), having failed to plead or otherwise defend, and now, upon

other response has been filed, and there has been no extension of such time, and that the Clerk
has entered default herein, entry of default judgment pursuant to Nebraska Civil Rule 55.1(c) and
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 55(b)(2) is proper.

stocks, omitted material information about dilutive share issuances, and


misrepresented the dividend eligibility of its shares (Compl. 68);
b.

Judgment is hereby entered in favor of plaintiff COR Clearing that


Calissio collected due bill payments from sellers of dividend-ineligible
shares, and attempted to cover up the scheme when discovered by feigning
a glitch in the system and representing that it was working with DTCC
to correct the error (Compl. 28, 68-69);

c.

Judgment is hereby entered in favor of plaintiff COR Clearing that


Calissio orchestrated the fraudulent scheme by purposely causing the
issuance of dividend ineligible shares during a due bill period without any
notice to the marketplace, hiding from DTCC the fact that such shares
were not dividend eligible, thereby causing DTCC to erroneously collect
dividends on all outstanding Calissio shares, and then failing to correct
DTCCs errant due bill collection and covering up the fraud by
communicating to COR Clearing, Darbie, and Nobilis that it was all the
result of a glitch in the system and representing that it was working with
DTCC to correct the error (Compl. 28, 69, 73);

d.

Judgment is hereby entered in favor of plaintiff COR Clearing that the


Calissio shares sold by Beaufort and Nobilis (through COR Clearing) were
ineligible for dividends, and therefore COR Clearing should not have been

e.

Judgment is hereby entered in favor of plaintiff COR Clearing that no


dividend was owed to Calissio for the shares sold by COR Clearing on
behalf of Nobilis and Beaufort, and therefore over $4 million in debits
were wrongfully made against COR Clearings account (Compl. 51,
58);

f.

Judgment is hereby entered in favor of plaintiff COR Clearing that it was


proximately harmed by Calissios material misrepresentations and
omissions in an amount to be determined by this Court at a hearing after
final disposition of claims against Signature Stock Transfer, Inc. (Compl.
72);

g.

A permanent injunction is hereby entered against Calissio precluding it


from disposing of the amount Calissio charged in due bills to COR
Clearing except to satisfy a monetary judgment in favor of plaintiff COR
Clearing in an amount to be determined by this Court at a hearing after
final disposition of claims against Signature Stock Transfer, Inc. (Compl.
39, 44, 52, 75).
