The statement lists 6 gift(s) from California Judges Association dated in 2025, totalling $602.98. Judges may not accept gifts from one source worth more than $560 a year (Code of Civil Procedure 170.9). The filer's comment on that page: “For November 7-9, 2025 board workshop I was reimbursed byt CJA for airfare and uber ride in the amount of $404.36”.
What to check
- Whether part of it was returned, or paid back, in time to not count (the filer's comments often say).
- Whether the gifts are from one source (a couple is two sources) or are of a kind the limit doesn't cover (family, wedding gifts and the like).
- The FPPC's gift fact sheet and Regulation 18940.2 for the exceptions.
