The short version

James Malkiewicz is listed as an executive officer and promoter on 2 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Sep 2015 and Oct 2016: Blue Ocean Sleep, LLC (Sacramento, CA — industry reported as "Other" — 2015–2016; $150K reported sold to 1 investors).

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

Listed alongside Dennis Connors (2 shared filings) and Michael Malkiewicz (2 shared filings).

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around James. Each name links to their own page.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 1 court case matching the name, 9 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 10 records came back. 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 2 public filings for James Malkiewicz and found 3 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: 6 bankruptcy cases name the subject or team members; and more below.

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.

15% of the money raised went to insiders — Blue Ocean Sleep, LLC

The Oct 11, 2016 Form D/A reports $150,000 sold and $23,000 of the proceeds used for payments to officers, directors or promoters. Issuer's note: "It has still not been determined if this repayment will be made in connection with this offering.".

What this means The filing reports how much of the money raised was paid to insiders. Over 10% is high for most deals. Ask what it paid for.

Form D/A · Oct 11, 2016 ↗Blue Ocean Sleep, LLC — PartnerFacts page ↗

Note · Oct 1, 2015 – Oct 11, 2016

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Blue Ocean Sleep, LLC (latest filing Oct 11, 2016)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Oct 11, 2016 (first sale Oct 1, 2015). It reports $150,000 sold of an indefinite amount 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.

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

0 of 1 offering report sales commissions; 0 report finder's fees; 1 reports proceeds to related persons totalling $23,000.

How this is counted

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.

Counted across every filing this person is listed on (latest filing per offering, per issuer).
