From: reastman@bellsouth.net Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 7:16 PM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: Comment re: SR-NASD-2002-168 Dear Sir or Madam: I feel the expungement proposal should be killed. It is unfair to require brokers to publicly disclose unproven allegations. Furthermore, it is doubly unfair to make it more difficult to erase those allegations. It would seem to me that firms should be required to disclose all that brokers are. Sincerely, Robert Eastmann
