The short version

John Ritter is listed as an executive officer on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Feb 2021: Nanostone Water, Inc. (Waltham, MA — manufacturing — 2021; $49K reported sold to 4 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Feb 2021. 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 Alan E Henderson (1 shared filing), Eugene B Skayne (1 shared filing), Macy Stoneback (1 shared filing), Matthew Ahearn (1 shared filing), Michael J Ahearn (1 shared filing) and 1 others.

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 4 court cases matching the name, 42 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 46 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 1 public filing for John Ritter and found 3 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Form D filed 475 days after the first sale; 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.

Court records show docket facts only; we never restate allegations as facts. Outcome wording comes from the docket feed; where it does not state a disposition we say so.

State courts: not covered (one-tap state court links under Look further). No state offers a lawful automated statewide source PartnerFacts can use today. Texas (re:SearchTX) terms prohibit storing results in a database open to third parties; New York (WebCivil) and Massachusetts (MassCourts) require a browser check that blocks scripted queries; California has no statewide index (58 county portals; Rule of Court 2.503 grants name-based access case by case); Florida, Utah and Illinois offer paid or partial access whose terms for automated use are unverified.

State courts: not covered (one-tap state court links under Look further). No state offers a lawful automated statewide source PartnerFacts can use today. Texas (re:SearchTX) terms prohibit storing results in a database open to third parties; New York (WebCivil) and Massachusetts (MassCourts) require a browser check that blocks scripted queries; California has no statewide index (58 county portals; Rule of Court 2.503 grants name-based access case by case); Florida, Utah and Illinois offer paid or partial access whose terms for automated use are unverified.

4. Differences between public sources

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

3 differences found between the filings for John Ritter — 1 worth asking about (compared 1 filing on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Oct 16, 2019 – Feb 2, 2021

Form D filed 475 days after the first sale — Nanostone Water, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Oct 16, 2019. The Form D was filed Feb 2, 2021 — 475 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 460 days past that.

What this means The notice went in months after money was taken in. Late notices are common and carry no penalty by themselves, but it is fair to ask the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Oct 16, 2019 – Feb 2, 2021

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Nanostone Water, Inc. (latest filing Feb 2, 2021)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Feb 2, 2021 (first sale Oct 16, 2019). It reports $49,116 sold of $500,000 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 · Aug 15, 2011 – Dec 10, 2012

Same name, different state: "John L. Ritter" (CT) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is MA. A separate record, "John L. Ritter" with address state CT, is listed on 2 filings — most recently by Balance Point Capital Partners, L.P. (Dec 10, 2012). The two records do not overlap in time: this page has one filing dated Feb 2, 2021; the other runs Aug 15, 2011 to Dec 10, 2012.

What this means Could be the same person who moved, or two people with the same name. 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.

"Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.
