Findings
Worth a look Late or missing
No annual disclosure found for 2025
As a judge, they file a disclosure by January 10 each year. We found none for 2025 in TRACER's Document Search under their name.
What to check- TRACER's Document Search under their name (a different spelling could hide one).
- Whether they held the office that January (members seated, or judges appointed, later in the year file on taking office).
Rule: An annual disclosure after January 10, or none found

Context Late or missing
Their 2026 annual disclosure is dated January 25, 2026, after the January 10 deadline
As a judge, they file a disclosure by January 10 each year (January 10, 2026 was a Saturday, so we count January 12, 2026 as on time). The first we found for 2026 in TRACER's Document Search is dated January 25, 2026, 13 days after the deadline.
What to check- Whether they took office after January 10 that year (an appointment or a new judgeship).
- The document's date in TRACER is the date it was received or entered.

Context Errors in the record
1 error in their public record: a disclosure that doesn't say why it was filed
We found these in the records as filed or as TRACER lists them, and read each as meant (shown here so anyone can check the reading): Their 2026 disclosure doesn't say why it was filed: none of the boxes (appointed, candidate, annual filing, amending) is ticked.
What to check- The original filing in TRACER for each one.
- These don't change what we show: we use the amount, name or date as meant.
