Complainant

Conner Edwards

Description

This case alleged a violation of RCW 42.17A.345 for failure to timely provide complete commercial advertiser books of account upon request. 

After reviewing the allegation, evidence, responses from Staples (the “Respondent”), and other applicable information, our findings are attached. Based on our findings, PDC staff has determined that, in this instance, the Respondent’s failure to have its commercial advertiser books-of-account available for inspection does not amount to a violation that warrants further investigation. However, pursuant to WAC 390-37-060(1)(d), the Respondent received a formal written warning concerning their failure to have commercial advertiser books-of-account available for inspection as required. PDC staff expect the Respondent to maintain current commercial advertiser books-of-account available for inspection in the future. The Commission will consider this formal written warning in deciding on further Commission action if there are future violations of PDC laws or rules.

Based on this information, the PDC has dismissed this matter in accordance with RCW 42.17A.755(1)
