I think we should hire this guy, and whoever wrote this PR: Press Release Source: Hop-On, Inc. Hop-On CEO Hopped out of Jail Sentence Wednesday March 21, 11:54 am ET IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--HOP-ON, INC. ("THE COMPANY") (OTC:HPNN - News) announced today that Peter Michaels will resume his position as President and CEO. After the much awaited news of his court case and media speculation as to a pending jail sentence, he will not spend even one day behind bars. On Monday, March 12th, a Federal Judge in San Diego, California granted Michaels probation and a fine bringing to a close this four year legal controversy. Peter Michaels stated, "The case was an anchor to me personally. I am extremely happy with the court's decision. Samuel Demissie is stepping down in Great Spirit and will be missed by the Company and shareholders so that I can resume my position and follow through with my vision." The 2003 indictment stemmed from Michaels' acceptance of a $20,000.00 check in violation of a cease and desist order in the late 90s. The CEO's uphill legal battle came at a time where the Company was a market favorite, trading at $1.25 indicating strong overseas ties would catapult the Orange County based Company to record earnings. Observers believed once Michaels was cleared to resume his leadership over the Company he would deliver forecasts of 2001 to the shareholders. Michaels is touted as the "Cell Phone King" and his product named one of Time Magazine's 2001 inventions of the year. The Company is very pleased to have a resolution in this matter and can now move forward with their business plans. ADVERTISEMENT click here About Hop-On, Inc.
