Data last updated Oct 23, 2026, 5:45 PM ET · Courts (RECAP) last checked: Oct 24, 2026, 2:52 AM ET · SEC enforcement last checked: covered by the index scan as of Oct 24, 2026, 2:50 AM ET

The short version

Clay Bethune is listed as an executive officer on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in May 2022: 55 CDT, LLC (Las Vegas, NV — industry reported as "Other" — 2022; $350K reported sold to 6 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed May 2022. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment — it is a notice, not an approval.

No other person or management entity is listed on the same filings.

What this means The filings name this person alone — no co-officers, directors or promoters were listed.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 22 court cases matching the name, 1 SEC release, 16 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 39 records came back, including 9 court cases still open — open cases can take years and cost money. Each one is listed below with a link to the original document and a line saying why it matched. A name match is not proof it is the same person or company — read the why line and the document. Being sued or named in a release is an accusation, not a finding.

We compared 1 public filing for Clay Bethune and found 2 differences: No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open; Same name, different state: "Clay Bethune" (MO) is a separate record.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

4. Differences between public sources

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals

2 differences found between the filings for Clay Bethune (compared 1 filing on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · May 2, 2022 – May 17, 2022

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — 55 CDT, LLC (latest filing May 17, 2022)

The latest filing for this offering is dated May 17, 2022 (first sale May 2, 2022). It reports $350,000 sold of $2,000,000 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Note · Sep 14, 2018 – Sep 15, 2022

Same name, different state: "Clay Bethune" (MO) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is NV. A separate record, "Clay Bethune" with address state MO, is listed on 2 filings — most recently by FFG Fixed Income Fund, LLC (Sep 15, 2022). Both records have filings in the same period (May 17, 2022).

What this means Two records with one name were active at the same time. That can be one person listing different company addresses, or two different people. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.

5. Money to insiders

None reported on 1 offering — no sales commissions, finder's fees or proceeds to insiders

Counts come from Form D Items 12–15 on the filings in our index (latest filing per offering; one offering = one SEC file number; an amendment updates its offering rather than adding one). "To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.
