The commission charges the former state board member — a female — with several violations of the State Ethics Code.
It concerns her unspecified employment after she left the unnamed board, and her representation of an unnamed individual before the unnamed state agency governed by her unnamed board.
The advisory opinion is rather dense, with footnotes. But the opinion, the commission explains, was issued “in order to educate the former board member” on the ethics code.
