Judicial Circuit (15Th): no public salary among the income listed

The filer held Judicial Circuit (15Th) in 2023, a salaried public office, but the primary sources of income listed (Brokerage Account) 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.

Rule: Paid public office, but no public salary listed

Context 4

Context Unusual reporting

Lists 2 investment accounts ($2,578,108) 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”2023 Form 6 instructions, Assets ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works

Context Unusual reporting

Net worth $6,471,607; listed items add up to $6,471,607

Reported net worth: $6,471,607. Household goods + listed assets − listed liabilities = $6,471,607. They roughly agree.

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.”2023 Form 6 instructions, Net Worth ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works

Context Income & business ties

100% of listed income ($62,110) comes from Brokerage Account

Listed income totals $62,110 from 1 source. The largest is classed as investments & retirement.

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.

Context Wealth & holdings

Reports a net worth of $6,471,607 — a multimillionaire 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.

Rule: Net worth tier
