UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Before the SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION INVESTMENT ADVISERS ACT OF 1940 Release No. 1557 / March 1, 1996 ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDING File No. 3-8924 : In the Matter of : : INVESTORS INCOME SYSTEMS : ORDER MAKING FINDINGS AND OF FLORIDA, INC. : IMPOSING SANCTIONS BY DEFAULT : : Investors Income Systems of Florida, Inc. (IISF) is in Chapter 7 bankruptcy. The trustee in bankruptcy does not contest the allegations set out in the Order Instituting Proceedings (Order) issued on January 16, 1996 -[1]-. The trustee has not, and will not, answer the Order or respond to the Motion to Default filed by the Division of Enforcement (Division). Rules of Practice 155 and 220 -[2]-. Accordingly, I find that the following allegations set out in the Order are true: The Commission's public official files disclose that IISF was a Florida corporation with offices located in Orlando, Florida. IISF was registered with the Commission as an investment adviser between December 28, 1981 and November 30, 1987. Commencing in at least December 1987 -[3]- and continuing through June 1995, IISF was an associated person of an unregistered investment adviser. ---------FOOTNOTES---------- -[1]- Representations made at the prehearing conference on February 28, 1996. -[2]-60 Fed. Reg. 32801, 32806 (1995) (to be codified at 17 C.F.R.  201.155 and 201.220). -[3]- The Order says November but if the IISF was a register investment adviser until November 30, 1987, its activities as an associated person with an unregistered adviser would have begun in December. ==========================================START OF PAGE 2====== At all times material hereto, Joseph Edwin Giewartowski (Giewartowski) was IISF's president, chairman, and principal. On June 19, 1995, a final judgment of permanent injunction was entered against Giewartowski, IISF, and Joan Marie Giewartowski in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. SEC v. Joseph Edwin Giewartowski and Joan Marie Giewartowski, Case No. 95-554-CIV-ORL-22 (M.D. Fla.). The final judgment permanently enjoins them from further violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and Sections 203(a), 206(1), 206(2), and 206(4) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (Advisers Act) and Rule 206(4)-4 thereunder. The Commission's Verified Complaint alleged that Giewartowski, doing business as IISF, acted as an unregistered investment adviser. The Verified Complaint also alleged that Giewartowski, doing business as IISF, offered securities in the form of investment contracts and/or promissory notes, solicited investment funds through material misrepresentations and omissions, made false statements to investors concerning the nature and value of their investments, commingled his clients' investment funds with his personal funds, and caused investors to incur losses in excess of $1,000,000. In view of the foregoing, I find that it is in the public interest to sanction IISF pursuant to Sections 203(f) of the Advisers Act. I ORDER that Investors Income Systems of Florida, Inc., is barred from association with any investment adviser. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the hearing in this matter scheduled to commence on March 6, 1996, be, and hereby is, cancelled. For the Commission, by its Chief Administrative law Judge, pursuant to delegated authority. Brenda P. Murray Chief Administrative Law Judge SERVICE LIST Rule 141(b) of the Commission's Rules of Practice, 17 C.F.R.  201.141(b), provides that written orders or decisions issued by the Commission or by a hearing officer shall be served promptly on each party pursuant to any method of service authorized under paragraph (a) of this rule or Rule 150(c).
