Abstrakt: A New York Federal District Court judge ruled last week that Robert E. Brennan and his firm, First Jersey Securities, had engaged in massive and continuing fraud in a case filed in 1985. Brennan once seemed the stuff of American entrepreneurial dreams. Starring in his own television ads, he built First Jersey into a national firm. But according to the federal court, Brennan built his fortune while simultaneously buying and selling over-hyped stocks to unwitting retail customers. First Jersey's lawyer, W. Hunt Dumont, denies such allegations and says Brennan will appeal the $71 million fine. In the meantime, the SEC has begun proceedings to revoke First Jersey's license and to bar Brennan from the securities business.
