§ 18316.6. Treasurer Liability.
(b) Consistent with the provisions of Section 83116.5, a treasurer may be held jointly and severally liable for a violation of the Act where the treasurer failed to abide by the duties as specified in Regulation 18427, caused another person to violate the Act, or aided and abetted a person to violate the Act.
(c) For purposes of subdivisions (a) and (b) of this regulation, where a duty is applicable to a candidate, the Commission may determine that the treasurer is not liable for the violation if the candidate does not have a controlled committee, and the treasurer did not cause or aid and abet the candidate to violate the Act.
(d) Notwithstanding subdivisions (a) and (b) of this regulation, where a treasurer of a committee performs any duty specified in Regulation 18427 on behalf of a major donor committee, as defined in Section 82013, subdivision (c), and the treasurer causes that committee to violate the Act, the Enforcement Division may propose to the Commission that the treasurer be held solely responsible for the violation within meaning of Section 91006. Evidence of negligence or intentional conduct by any person who violated the Act will be considered by the Enforcement Division in making the recommendation.
