- AThe stop order in State Q prevents sales only in State Q.✓ Correct answer
- BSales are prohibited in both states until the deficiency is resolved.
- CState R’s Administrator must also issue a stop order.
- DThe federal SEC must intervene before sales resume.
Explanation
Why A — The stop order in State Q prevents sales only in State Q.
Each state’s Administrator acts independently under the USA. A stop order in one state does not affect registrations in other states (USA Sec. 306).
