Stuart David Baron (CRD # 3093975, Registered Representative, Brooklyn, New York) submitted a Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent in which he was barred from association with any FINRA member in any capacity. Without admitting or denying the findings, Baron consented to the described sanction and to the entry of findings that he converted approximately $8,530 from a relative. The findings stated that Baron forged the relative’s name on documents without her knowledge, permission or authorization in order to open a joint checking account and then signed her name on transfer forms without the relative’s permission or authorization and transferred approximately $8,530 from her Individual Retirement Account (IRA) to the joint account, using the funds for his personal use.
