NEW YORK - March 19, 2013 - PRLog -- Attorneys Vincent Imbesi, Jeanne Christensen and Brittany Weiner, of the law firm Imbesi Christensen, represented the victorious FINRA broker.  Pursuant to FINRA's procedural rules, the award was required to be confirmed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Imbesi Christensen petitioned the court to confirm the award.  On March 18, 2013, the Court issued an order confirming the FINRA award and mandating expungement.  

Expungement Granted:

A three person FINRA arbitration panel issued an award that recommended the expungement of Claimant Hurtado’s Form U5 as filed by Respondent Chase Investment Services.  The panel ordered that the ‘Reason For Termination” shall be changed to “Other” and the accompanying “Termination Explanation” be revised to set forth:

“After initially terminating Claudia Hurtado for an alleged violation of the firm’s Policies and Procedures (not securities related), the FINRA arbitration panel determined that the firm had not proven that Claudia Hurtado had violated the firm’s Policies and Procedures.”

The Panel further recommends that the answers to the Internal Review Disclosure Reporting Page Section 3 and Termination Disclosure Reporting Page Section 4 in the above Form U5 be expunged and replaced with the above replacement language. The panel further recommends that the answers to the Internal Review Disclosure Reporting Page Section 5(B) and Termination Disclosure Reporting Page Section 2 in the above Form U5 be expunged and changed to Employment Terminated for Other Reasons.

All three arbitrators concurred with the decision after several days of hearings. The Courts order mandated the changes as determined by the FINRA arbitration panel.
