The complaints filed in this case alleged violations of RCW 42.17A.710 for failure to timely and accurately disclose financial assets, real estate, and business associations and/or ownership on an F-1 report. Specifically, the first complaint alleged that Julie Hsieh (the “Respondent”) omitted the following information from her F-1 report: 1) the assets her spouse, David Figatner, held with Fidelity Investments; and 2) business associations she and her spouse had with Yopey Yopey LLC. The second complaint alleged that she omitted the following information from her F-1 report: 1) her business association with Hsieh Investments Washington III, LLC; and 2) real property (real estate) in Washington purchased by Hsieh Investments Washington III, LLC. The complaint also alleged that she misreported real property (real estate) in Washington that is owned by Hsieh Investments Texas, L.P.
Based on the attached findings and pursuant to WAC 390-37-060(1)(d), the Respondent received a formal written warning concerning her failure to timely and accurately disclose the required information on her candidate F-1 report. PDC staff expects the Respondent to timely and accurately disclose all required financial information on the F-1 report should she choose to run for office again in the future, and annually, if she is elected to office. The Commission will consider this formal written warning in deciding on further Commission action if there are future violations of PDC laws or rules.
Based on this information, the PDC has dismissed this matter in accordance with RCW 42.17A.755(1).
