Re:

Directive to answer to the People

We, the Peoples Oversight Commission on Stevens County, issue this directive to answer to
the people by affidavit or to appear in person to testify under oath why you have not responded
or otherwise answered the Peoples charges that you:
1.
2.

Are in non-compliance with Washington state law1; and

Are occupying an elective county office you have failed to duly qualify to possess2.

Please submit your sworn or affirmed affidavit properly addressing the above charges no later
than 72 hours from the date of service of this Directive.
If you wish to testify under oath before this Commission, please notify the Commission within
48 hours of service of this Directive, at the address below, and a date that will accommodate the
parties shall be scheduled.
As an elected official you have a duty to answer to the people. Failure to answer and provide
facts, evidence and law that the accusations levied against you are a misunderstanding by the
People or are wholly inaccurate as applied to the law will be your tacit admission that the
Peoples charges are true and correct.
Please govern yourself accordingly.
