Good question. I needed to remind myself of the nuance. First sentence from Wiki says: <<A Wells notice is a letter that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) sends to people or firms when it is planning to bring an enforcement action against them.>>
To me: "planning" is the key term.
Ref: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wells_notice
The Wiki article is short and dense. I highly recommend it!
> A "Wells Notice" is a letter sent by a securities regulator to a prospective respondent, notifying him of the substance of charges that the regulator intends to bring against the respondent, and affording the respondent with the opportunity to submit a written statement to the ultimate decision maker.
So did they receive a notice with the charges or didn't they?
