Judicial Circuit (18Th): no public salary among the income listed
The filer held Judicial Circuit (18Th) in 2023, a salaried public office, but the primary sources of income listed (Rental Income) don't include a public payer such as the State of Florida, the county or the school district.
What to check
Check the income page of the original: the salary may be listed under another name.
Check that they were paid in office all year: the Commission keeps listing a suspended or departed official under the office, and a new term may start partway through the year.
Some officials decline or donate their salary; the form still asks for income received.
