111. DISCUSSION.
In the instant matter, the alleged noncompliance is that Respondent, as a principal
registered with the Pennsylvania Department of State ( "Department of State ") pursuant to
the Lobbying Disclosure Law, negligently failed to timely file a quarterly expense report
pursuant to 65 Pa.C.S. § 13A05 for the second quarter of 2016.
As noted above, the parties have submitted a Consent Agreement and Stipulation of
Findings. The parties' Stipulated Findings are set forth above as the Findings of this
Commission. We shall now summarize the relevant facts as contained therein.
Respondent initially registered as a principal with the Department of State on
February 10, 2015, for the registration period January 1, 2015, through December 31,
2016. Respondent's registration statement indicated that lobbying commenced on
February 9, 2015. Respondent was assigned the principal registration number "P42731."
Pursuant to Section 13A05 of the Lobbying Disclosure Law, 65 Pa.C.S. § 13A05,
and Section 51.3 of the Lobbying Disclosure Regulations, 51 Pa. Code § 51.3, expense.
reports are filed on a quarterly basis. When a registered principal's total expenses for
lobbyin exceed $2,500 for a reporting period /quarter, the principal is required to file a
quarterly expense report with the Department of State by no later than 30 days after the
last day of such quarter. For a reporting period in which total expenses are $2,500 or less,
a statement to that effect must be filed by the principal. Thus, a registered principal must
file either a quarterly expense report or a statement of failure to meet the reporting
threshold by no later than the 30th day after each quarterly reporting period ends. 51 Pa.
Code § 55.1(d).
Having registered on February 10, 2015, for the registration period January 1, 2015,
through December 31, 2016, Respondent was required to file a quarterly expense report
for the second quarter of 2016. Respondent flailed to file a quarterly expense report for the
second quarter of 2016 by the filing deadline.

Failure to timely file a quarterly expense report constitutes a failure to report as
required by the Lobbying Disclosure Law, and the delinquency continues until the filing is
received by the Department of State in proper form. 51 Pa. Code § 51.4(b).
By Warning Notice letter dated September 6, 2016, Respondent was served with
notice of the alleged noncompliance in accordance with Section 63.4(1) of the Lobbying
Disclosure Regulations, 51 Pa. Code § 63.4(1).
The Warning Notice letter provided Respondent an opportunity to cure the alleged
noncompliance and avoid the institution of these proceedings by filingg a quarterly expense
report for the second quarter of 2016 with the Department of State within thirty (30) days of
the mailing date of the Warning Notice letter.
As of November 1, 2016, no second quarter 2016 expense report was found to have
been filed with the Department of State for Respondent.
Per the Department of State's web site, Respondent has now submitted a quarterly
expense report for the second quarter of 2016.
Negligent failure to register or report as required by the Lobbying Disclosure Law is
punishable by an administrative penalty of up to $50.00 for each late day. 65 Pa.C.S. §
13A09(c)(1). Per the Consent Agreement and Stipulation of Findings, the parties are in
agreement that Respondent's expense report for the second quarter of 2016 was 98 days
delinquent.
Having highlighted the Stipulated Findings and issues before us, we shall now apply
the Lobbying Disclosure Law to determine the proper disposition of this case.
The parties' Consent Agreement sets forth a proposed resolution of the allegations
as follows:
The Investigative Division will recommend the following
conclusions in relation to the above deficiencies:
a. That Respondent, in its capacity as a Principal
registered with the Pennsylvania Department of State

(65 Pa.C.S. § 13A04), failed to timely file a Quarterly

the second (2nd) quarter of 2016.
That the transgression(s) of the Lobbyying Disclosure

calculated as set forth below:
On September 6, 2016, a Warning Notice
regarding the delinquent quarterly expense

Unites States Mail;
ii. Respondent did not file the outstanding
Quarterly Expense Report for the second (2n

quarter of 2016 within the stated cure period;
For purposes of this Consent Agreement only,
the delinquent period is calculated from the first
date the second (261) quarter of 2016 Expense

November 7, 2016, said period being 98 days.
Respondent agrees to pay the sum of $2,210.00 in settlement

Disclosure Law (51 Pa. Code. § 51.1 et seq.)
The Investigative Division will recommend that the State Ethics
Commission take no further action in this matter, impose no
further sanctions, and make no specific recommendations to
any law enforcement or other authority to fake action in this
matter as to either Respondent, or any individual or
representative of Respondent. Such, however, does not
