Worth a look Unusual reporting

2 entries are withheld entirely ($1,290,000, 28% of net worth)

In the public copy, the whole description of 2 asset entries is redacted, so the public can't tell what they are. Partial redactions (an account number, or an exempt official's home address next to a named item) are common; this is the whole entry. The filer holds a position (Judicial Senior Judges - Consent to be Assigned) listed in s. 119.071, F.S., whose home address or other information the Commission keeps confidential on request, so these redactions may be lawful — though several whole entries go beyond a home address.

What to check
  • Compare with the filer's other filings, which may describe the same items.
  • The Commission on Ethics holds the unredacted filing.

Context 4

Context Unusual reporting

Lists 4 investment accounts ($3,560,999) instead of what's in them

The instructions say the investments held in a brokerage account or IRA are the assets to report — not the account itself. As listed, the public can't see what the filer is invested in.

What to check
  • Which companies or funds are in these accounts? Holdings matter for conflicts of interest.

Rule: Accounts listed instead of investments
“Note that the product contained in a brokerage account, IRA, or the Florida College Investment Plan, is your asset”2024 Form 6 instructions, Assets ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works

Context Unusual reporting

Net worth $4,540,000; listed items add up to $6,128,999

Reported net worth: $4,540,000. Household goods + listed assets − listed liabilities = $6,128,999. 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.”2024 Form 6 instructions, Net Worth ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works

Context Income & business ties

Earns from 3 separate employers or businesses

Several distinct earned-income sources (excluding investments, retirement and Social Security).

What to check
  • Are any of these sources connected to each other or to the office sought?

Rule: Several earned-income sources

How this rule works

Context Wealth & holdings

Reports a net worth of $4,540,000 — a millionaire on paper

Net worth is the filer's own figure. Being wealthy isn't a problem; it's context for comparing candidates and for reading the rest of the form.

What to check
  • Compare with the other candidates in the race.
  • Check that the large assets below are described and valued clearly.
