Roger Allan Duval, S-19-2683-19-TO01 - Summary Order.
On May 24, 2019, the Securities Division entered a Summary Order to Suspend Registrations and Notice of Intent to Enter an Order to Revoke Registrations, Deny Future Registrations, Impose Fines, and Charge Costs against Roger Allan Duval. The Summary Order alleges that between June 2017 and April 2019, Duval made unauthorized withdrawals totaling $246,400 from three Washington resident brokerage accounts. Duval misappropriated the funds by depositing them into a credit union account under his control. Two of the accounts are held by elderly residents, and one account was owned by a deceased resident, which Duval withdrew funds from soon after the resident's death in 2017. The Summary Order suspends Duval's investment adviser representative and securities salesperson registration and gives notice of the Securities Division's intent to enter an order to revoke Duval's securities registrations in Washington, to deny future securities registration applications by Duval, and to impose fines and costs. The Respondent has a right to request a hearing on the Summary Order.
