The short version

MICHAEL FORBES is listed as a director on 2 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer in Oct 2017: ELITE AEROSPACE GROUP, INC. (Tustin, CA — manufacturing — 2017; $7M reported sold to 314 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Oct 2017. 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 DUSTIN TILLMAN (2 shared filings) and ZEESHAWN ZIA (2 shared filings).

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

The issuer belongs to the sponsor group Elite (2 issuers, $18M reported sold, 2014–2018).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Elite has 2 companies on file and $18M reported sold in total — the group page shows the whole track record in one place.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 1 court case matching the name, 49 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 50 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 MICHAEL FORBES and found 5 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: MICHAEL FORBES is no longer listed on the Sep 17, 2018 amendment; 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.

1. Lawsuits

1 case: 1 judgment

FORBES, MICHAEL v. TEXAS EMPLOYERS' INS ASSN judgment

What was searched

Sources searched: CourtListener bulk data (RECAP dockets as of 2026-09-30; recall-first rule 10-24) — federal district + bankruptcy courts State courts: not covered (one-tap state court links under Look further). PACER: not searched. · Last checked Oct 24, 2026, 2:40 AM ET.

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. Washington (dw.courts.wa.gov; bulk index reports under a JISC data-dissemination agreement), Delaware (CourtConnect; Court of Chancery not included) and Arizona (apps.azcourts.gov/publicaccess, which has an official channel to request high-volume access) are the candidates; PartnerFacts will request written permission before any automated search. Federal courts are searched through CourtListener / RECAP.

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. Washington (dw.courts.wa.gov; bulk index reports under a JISC data-dissemination agreement), Delaware (CourtConnect; Court of Chancery not included) and Arizona (apps.azcourts.gov/publicaccess, which has an official channel to request high-volume access) are the candidates; PartnerFacts will request written permission before any automated search.

4. Differences between public sources

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

5 differences found between the filings for MICHAEL FORBES — 1 worth asking about (compared 2 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Oct 13, 2017 – Sep 17, 2018

MICHAEL FORBES is no longer listed on the Sep 17, 2018 amendment — ELITE AEROSPACE GROUP, INC.

MICHAEL FORBES appears on the Oct 13, 2017 Form D (director) but not on the Sep 17, 2018 Form D/A for the same offering.

What this means People leave, and the issuer must list only current officers, directors and promoters. It is still worth asking why this person left and who replaced them.

Sources
Note · Sep 1, 2017 – Oct 13, 2017

Form D filed 42 days after the first sale — ELITE AEROSPACE GROUP, INC.

The filing says the first sale was Sep 1, 2017. The Form D was filed Oct 13, 2017 — 42 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 27 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Oct 13, 2017 – Sep 17, 2018

Offering amount changed between filings — ELITE AEROSPACE GROUP, INC.

The Oct 13, 2017 filing says $25,000,000 offered; the Sep 17, 2018 Form D/A says an indefinite amount.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Sources
Note · Jun 26, 2018 – Sep 6, 2022

Same name, different state: "Michael Forbes" (A1) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is CA. A separate record, "Michael Forbes" with address state A1, is listed on 3 filings — most recently by Adastra Holdings Ltd. (Sep 6, 2022). The two records do not overlap in time: this page has one filing dated Oct 13, 2017; the other runs Jun 26, 2018 to Sep 6, 2022.

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.

Sources
Note · Oct 13, 2017 – Sep 17, 2018

Minimum investment changed between filings — ELITE AEROSPACE GROUP, INC.

The Oct 13, 2017 filing lists a minimum of $12,500; the Sep 17, 2018 Form D/A lists $50,000.

What this means A different minimum usually means the offering terms changed. Check which terms apply to you.

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

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.
