Governance Explanations

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 11B

The form 990 is reviewed by the executive director and all members of the board of directors before its filing.

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 12C

Conflict of interest policy is signed annually by all directors, principal officers and members of any delegated committee. They are required to disclose annually interest that could give rise to conflicts. Periodic reviews are also conducted. Conflicts of interest are presented to governing board or delegated committee which considers proposed transaction or arrangement in conflict of the "interested person". After disclosure of all material facts and presentation by interested person, they must leave the meeting while determination of conflict is discussed and voted upon by remaining disinterested board or committee members. Further investigation may be opened. Alternative arrangement or more advantageous transaction not raising conflict may be considered by disinterested governing board directors or committee members. If not possible, governing board or committee may take further action; this may include appropriate disciplinary and corrective action.

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15A

Compensation for the executive director is determined by the board of directors based upon their independent evaluation and personal experience in the market.

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15B

Senior attorney compensation is determined by the executive director using their personal experience and independent data. The board of directors then approves or disapproves these senior attorney salaries. However, please note that none of the attorneys are key employees or officers under definition, except for the executive director.

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 19

It is the washington appellate project's policy to fully comply with federal and state public disclosure requirements with respect to irs forms 990 (990-t), 1023 and 5227 upon request for disclosure whether made in writing or in person. Additionally, the articles of incorporation and by- laws are available for public inspection.
