Aren't you thankful that you didn't get hit with a giant ELEC fine for violating New Jersey's election law?

Announced today, former Hoboken Mayor Peter Cammarano, Angel Alicea, Vincent Addeo, Raul Morales and Lucy Truglio have been hit with fines stemming from Hoboken's 2009 mayoral campaign.
"THEREFORE, pursuant to N.J.S.A. 19:44A-22 and N.J.A.C. 19:25-17.1 et seq., the Commission hereby REPRIMANDS all Respondents and imposes a penalty in the amounts as follows:
- Joint and several as to all Respondents $74,614.46,
- joint and several as to all Respondent candidates an additional $3,715.20,
- severally as to Respondents Addeo, Morales and Alicea an additional $5,100.00 and
- severally as to Respondent Truglio an additional $1,700.00."
Joint and several means the Respondents 'share' the fine; it becomes the responsibility of the defendants to sort out their respective proportions of liability and payment.
Several liability means each party is liable only for its own specified obligations. If a party is unable to satisfy his obligation, the responsibility does not pass to other parties.
Here you go:
Now that these fines have been levied, perhaps Mr. Brindle can turn his attentions to the ELEC violations of Mr. 29%, Mikey DeFusco..
ReplyDeleteStarted reading the elec decision. Notice that it addresses more than 1 million dollars of RUNOFF EXPENSES - page 7:
ReplyDeleteThe Administrative Law Judge found that the JCC failed to timely report over
$1,000,000.00 in runoff election transactions and that some of the information remains
unreported to date. Respondents don’t claim that these transactions were timely filed, but assert that in late-filed and amended reports, most of the information was provided, although Respondent Cammarano concedes that approximately 15% of the required information has never been provided.
Glass half empty. 9 years is some serious justice delayed.
ReplyDeleteGlass half full, Defusco’s day is coming.
let us not forget all the other elections between over the last decade where campaign violations occurred. tons of potential fines to levy out there.
