Sales of the Quadro Tracker® were enjoined in April 1996 by U.S District Judge Thad Heartfield, who cited the fraudulent nature of the device.

At the advice of his attorney, he asserted his Fifth Amendment right not to incriminate himself 42 times. He was never accused of a crime, and his job as a federal prosecutor was not affected..."
