The short version

Robert J Marcin is listed as an executive officer and director on 4 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Mar 2009 and Mar 2010: DEFIANCE ASSET MANAGEMENT FUND LP (West Conshohocken, PA — pooled investment fund — 2009–2010; $257.1M reported sold to 99 investors) and DEFIANCE OFFSHORE FUND LTD (George Town, Cayman Islands (as filed: E9) — pooled investment fund — 2009–2010; $153.6M reported sold to 45 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director. Across those companies the filings report $410.7M sold in total.

Listed alongside Scott A Burney (2 shared filings) and Stephen F Esser (2 shared filings).

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

All 2 issuers belong to the sponsor group Defiance (2 issuers, $402.8M reported sold, 2009–2010).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Defiance has 2 companies on file and $402.8M 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 (AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, LA, ME, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, NH, NM, OR, RI, TX, WA) — 4 court cases matching the name, 2 SEC releases, 7 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 13 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 4 public filings for Robert J Marcin and found 5 differences, 3 worth asking the sponsor about: Regulator action: Marcin Malarz et al. (Jan 30, 2012); Regulator action: Marcin Malarz et al. (Dec 13, 2011); 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.

4. Differences between public sources

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

5 differences found between the filings for Robert J Marcin — 3 worth asking about (compared 4 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Jan 30, 2012

Regulator action: Marcin Malarz et al. (Jan 30, 2012)

An SEC litigation release dated Jan 30, 2012 names Robert J Marcin. Our match estimate: 40%. The release is the source; we do not summarize its outcome here.

What this means A regulator filed or announced an action naming this person or company (or someone on the same filings). Read the release; ask the sponsor what it was and how it ended.

Sources
Worth asking · Dec 13, 2011

Regulator action: Marcin Malarz et al. (Dec 13, 2011)

An SEC litigation release dated Dec 13, 2011 names Robert J Marcin. Our match estimate: 40%. The release is the source; we do not summarize its outcome here.

What this means A regulator filed or announced an action naming this person or company (or someone on the same filings). Read the release; ask the sponsor what it was and how it ended.

Sources
Worth asking · Mar 9, 2009 – Mar 9, 2010

Amount sold went down between filings — DEFIANCE ASSET MANAGEMENT FUND LP

The Mar 9, 2009 filing says $257,097,736 sold; the Mar 9, 2010 Form D/A says $249,152,411 sold — $7,945,325 less.

What this means Amounts sold normally only go up as a raise continues. A drop can mean investors were refunded, a figure was corrected, or an earlier number was wrong. Ask the sponsor which it was.

Sources
Note · Jan 1, 2005 – Mar 9, 2010

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — DEFIANCE OFFSHORE FUND LTD (latest filing Mar 9, 2010)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Mar 9, 2010 (first sale Jan 1, 2005). It reports $153,627,190 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.

Note · Apr 1, 2005 – Mar 9, 2010

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.
