May private plaintiffs, the SEC, or both bring aider and abettor actions under Rule 10(b)? What must be proven? What type of relief may be sought?
The SEC, but not private plaintiffs, may bring aider-and-abettor cases under Section 10(b). To prove that a person is an aider and abettor it is necessary to show (1) the existence of a primary violation of Section 10(b) or Rule 10b-5, (2) the defendant's knowledge of (or recklessness as to) that primary violation, and (3) substantial assistance of the violation by the defendant. The SEC may seek damages or injunctive relief.
