It’s Dick again.

Well, the  Bankruptcy & Collections Division of the Office of the Texas Attorney General has issued a demand letter from Harris County Dept of Education Trustee Eric Dick. Dick was fined $30,000 for his involvement in a mailer supporting his 2019 run for City Council. He also agreed to a $10,000 settlement for not reporting expenditures. The Texas Ethics Committee (TEC) referred Dick to the AG’s office in December of 2022. A year later the AG’s office took action.

According to the letter Dick had till early January to pay his debt to the State:

 If payment is not received in ten (10) days from the date of this letter, or if arrangements are not made within that time to satisfy the debt, our office will consider filing suit to recover the full amount owed plus any attorney’s fees and court costs that can be recovered. This is the only letter you will receive from us relative to the unpaid fines so it should be considered a final demand. 

You can read the entire letter here.
