On August 24, 2026, the Oklahoma Department of Securities filed a civil lawsuit against Vesta Realty. The action alleges the firm failed to provide subpoenaed investor communications and identification records as required.
Why it matters
The lawsuit seeks a court order to compel the production of records while highlighting mounting legal pressure on the company. Statutes grant the department the authority to make criminal referrals following investigations into potential securities violations.
A former employee confirmed that the company owes a contractor $103,194, while public records show at least 28 lawsuits have been filed against the company or CEO Marc Kulick during 2026.
