Laurent J. LaBrie v. TDAmeritrade FINRA Claim 11-03725
Arbitrator's Order Denying the Motion to Amend Statement of Claim and to Add TD
Clearing
On 3/12/2012, the Arbitrator had issued an order (see Requests 3 and 4) that TD Ameritrade "must provide contact information for both their clearing company and settlement company" so that the Claimant could get trade confirmations to track where his money went for the trade.
TD Ameritrade responded that the clearing company was TD Ameritrade Clearing, jointly subsidiaries of TD Ameritrade Holdings. So, the Claimant had to spend thousands of dollars to submit an Amended Statement of Claim to pursue these documents in a kind of shell game that the Arbitrator and Respondents were playing with him.
In this order of 6/22/2012, the Arbitrator denied him the ability to do what he himself had told him to do. It became clear that the Arbitrator Douglas McLaren was facilitating a scorched earth stategy for TD Ameritrade. It was clear that without reading or judging the claim or reviewing the evidence, McLaren was declaring that TD Ameritrade Clearing could not be brought to arbitration, and he would make it as expensive as possible for the individual investor.
