Context 4

Context Unusual reporting

Lists 1 investment account ($48,185) 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

“Retirement Account” ($48,185) doesn't name the institution

Intangible assets should name the entity they relate to.

What to check
  • Which bank, company or fund is this?

Rule: Asset without a named institution
“Do not list simply "stocks and bonds" or "bank accounts."”2023 Form 6 instructions, Assets (quote not found in this year's instructions) · how this rule works

Context Unusual reporting

Net worth $884,889; listed items add up to $929,477

Reported net worth: $884,889. Household goods + listed assets − listed liabilities = $929,477. The difference matches the joint and several liabilities (e.g. a mortgage shared with a spouse).

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

81% of listed income ($152,971) comes from ECS Florida, LLC

Listed income totals $189,520 from 2 sources. 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”2023 Form 6 instructions, Income ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works
