- W2262904346 abstract "Given the lack of significant federal criminal prosecutions stemming from the 2008 financial crisis, state enforcement — in particular, by the New York State Attorney General through Section 352-c of the General Business Law, known as the 'Martin Act' — could play a larger role. Were the Martin Act to become a more significant means of criminal prosecution however, its heightened use would inevitably magnify two major problems with the statute. First, it is widely believed that the statute’s culpability standards are weaker than those required for prosecution under federal law. Specifically, the consensus view is that the Martin Act establishes strict liability for misdemeanor securities fraud crimes. Yet there has been almost no analysis of whether it is 'appropriate' to prosecute securities fraud as a strict liability crime, at least under this provision. Second, in part because there have been so few Martin Act decisions, New York courts have provided scant justification for their interpretation of mens rea under the felony provisions of the statute. As a result, they have never thoroughly explained exactly what showing of culpability is required for felony liability, or how their holdings comport with the Martin Act’s text and legislative history.This Note demonstrates that the mental state requirements for Martin Act misdemeanor and felony liability need to be clarified and more thoroughly supported, especially because the statutory text and legislative history are so ambiguous, and the subsequent jurisprudence has failed to provide a coherent explain for the current state of the doctrine. Nonetheless, the Martin Act’s text, history and underlying policy rationale can be interpreted to support strict liability prosecution for misdemeanor securities fraud, and to impose felony liability for reckless violations of the statute." @default.
