Context 4

Context Unusual reporting

All 8 asset values are round numbers

Every listed asset is valued in round thousands, which suggests estimates rather than statements or appraisals. That's allowed, but it makes the totals less precise.

What to check
  • Are bank or brokerage balances (which are exact) rounded too?

Rule: All values are round numbers

How this rule works

Context Unusual reporting

Net worth $847,000; listed items add up to $1,319,000

Reported net worth: $847,000. Household goods + listed assets − listed liabilities = $1,319,000. A difference is normal: net worth also counts assets and debts that aren't listed individually (items under $1,000, credit cards, taxes), and the instructions say subtracting listed liabilities from listed assets won't give an accurate figure in most cases.

What to check
  • No action needed unless other items look off.

Rule: Net worth vs. listed items
“Simply subtracting your liabilities from your assets will not result in an accurate net worth figure in most cases.” Form 6 instructions, Net Worth (quote not found in this year's instructions) · how this rule works

Context Income & business ties

100% of listed income ($202,440) comes from DCA jUDICIAL sALARY

Listed income totals $202,440 from 1 source. The largest is classed as other / unclassified.

What to check
  • Who is this source, and does it have business before the office sought?
  • If the filer owns it, check the business section and secondary income.

Rule: Where the money comes from
“List the name of each source of income that provided you with more than $1,000 of income during” Form 6 instructions, Income (quote not found in this year's instructions) · how this rule works

Context Wealth & holdings

Real estate worth $1,700,000 across 2 properties (201% of net worth)

Real estate holdings, as listed.

What to check
  • Look the parcels up with the county property appraiser: land use (vacant or improved), assessed value and when they were bought.
  • Check whether any listed liability is a mortgage on these properties.

Rule: Real estate holdings
“Real property: Identify by providing the street address of the property.” Form 6 instructions, Assets (quote not found in this year's instructions) · how this rule works
