“When the SEC initiated the present case in 1975, it had the choice of proceeding administratively (15 U.S.C. §§ 77v(a), 78aa). The SEC chose to first proceed against Pennaluna [defendant] in the district court. In doing so, jurisdiction was conferred in the district court over the parties and the subject matter ... it expressly retained jurisdiction to insure compliance with the agreement. In addition to this retained jurisdiction, the district court also had the authority to consider Pennaluna’s request for relief under the All Writs Act. 28 U.S.C. § 1651 (a).”
