<p>We are currently investigating allegations made against Westpark Capital, a Los Angeles, California-based securities brokerage firm.  FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) brought a <a href="https://www.finra.org/sites/default/files/fda_documents/2017054381603%20WestPark%20Capital%2C%20Inc.%20CRD%2039914%2C%20Richard%20A.%20Rappaport%20CRD%201885122%20AWC%20jlg.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">regulatory action</a> against Westpark Capital.  FINRA alleged that Westpark Capital issued $3.9 million in promissory notes of its parent company, Westpark Capital Financial Services, and made negligent misrepresentations and omissions in connection with this offering.</p>


<p>To settle these allegations, Westpark Capital agreed to pay a $250,000 fine and was also ordered to offer recission of the promissory notes to 19 investors.  Moreover, Richard Rappaport, the firm’s CEO, was fined $30,000 and suspended in all capacities by FINRA for 4 months and in a principal capacity for 15 months.</p>
