Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part XI, line 9:

“Uncollectible Pledges -500,000.”

Form 990, Part XII, Line 2C:

“The process has not changed from prior year.”

Form 990, Schedule N, Part II:

“Promise to Give became uncollectible; Furniture and Equipment were distributed to multiple employees.”

Form 990:

“Justice at Stake ceased operations as of August 31, 2016. The effective date of dissolution was December 31, 2016, and the corporation was dissolved pursuant to the laws of the District of Columbia in March 2017. Because no business was transacted in 2017, the 990 filing for 2017 is being submitted in an abundance of caution.”
