Shodage AM-o-unt The amount of the shortage is'$446.12. Date Short 03ceurredt The date the shortage occurred was August 5. 1999. 1EIMM11MOD Qf Account Shodaggi Can 10-1-02, # spore with Temporary Account Clerk Pat Burzdak regarding irregularities in two Civil Unit levy account files. The Civil Unit had been undergoing an audit of its accounts and Burzdak was assisting the Auditor's Office with the review of our accounts.and accounting practices. Burzdak told me that an employer on the east coast sent several bad checks to our office totaling over several thousand dollars. Burzdak stated that Supervising Clerk Neva Bennett had made several attempts to recover the monies but failed. Burzdak informed me that if our efforts to recover the monies were exhausted, the lass should be formally reported to reconcile the CivilUnit's accounts. On 10-2-02, l spoke to Sheriffs Civil l4nit Clerical Supervisor Neva Bennett regarding the account shortage described by Burzdak. Bennett informed me that there were two Earnings Withholding Orders filed with our office to levy on the wages of two of SBC LVMft d faint R IM 96H AN EQUAL 010POR7UNtTY EMPLOYER Page 1 of 4 Corporation employees: Carol Cody (Sheriffs Levy File 99-1060, See Attachment-1) and Emil Cristobal (Sheriffs Levy File 98-8566, See Attachment 2). On 6-22-99, SBC Corporation sent our office the first check, number 3000134238 for $1,054.05, for deposit into two levy accounts as follows: $511.54 to Carol Cody's levy file of 99-1060 and $542.51 to Emil CKIstobal's levy file of 98-8566 (See Attachment-3). On 7-7-99, SBC Corporation sent our office a second check, number 3000135733 for$1,048.34, for deposit into two levy adcounts as follows: $508.08 to Carol Cody's levy file of 99-1060 and $540.26 to Emil Cr istobal's levy file of 98-8566 (See Attachment-3). On 8-4-99, the Auditor's Office sent a package containing dishonored checks to our office. Both checks from SBC Corporation above were among those enclosed. One of Clerical Supervisor Neva Bennett's duties entails "reversing" or subtracting the deposits on dishonored checks from accounts since no such monies were received. In processing the two dishonored checks listed above, she mistook check number 3000135733 for$1,048.34 to be a copy of check number 3000134238 for$1,054.05 since they outwardly appeared to be the same (See Attachment-3).' Bennett reversed or removed the deposit for the first check, number 3000134238 for $1,054.05, but n9t for the second check, number 3000135733 for$1,048,34, thinking it was a copy of the first check (See Attachment-3). Subsequently, SBC sent a third check, number 3000137518 for $2,102.39, in payment.for the two dishonored checks. Because the second check was not reversed from the accounts, or the deposit removed, it put both accounts into "overpaid" status and refund checks were issued to Carol Cody and Emil Cristobal, On 8-5-99, a refund check was issued to Carol Cody for$1,224.45 and Emil Cristobal for$446.12. Due to the accounts being placed into an *overpaid" status, Carol Cody received a refund of$1,224.45, instead of$718.37 which she was due, and Emil Cristobal received a refund of$446.12 that should not have been issued. On 10-10-02 at 0929 hours, I spoke with SBC Corporation n Accounts Payable Associate Director Robert Miller Via telephone at 3114,235.1718. Miller confirmed that "stop payments" were placed on the two checks listed above and that a third check was then drafted to make payment on the two canceled checks. Miller stated that his records indicated that the third check cleared. Miller informed me that the two checks were canceled because incorrect invoice numbers were used in their drafting. On 10-14-02, 1 contacted Kim Dao with the Auditor's Office to determine the status of the two refund checks issued to Carol Cody and Emil Cristobal. Per Dao, refund check number 68519 for$446.12 issued to Emil Cristobal was cashed on 8-5-99. Efforts to recover these monies would have to be directed at Cristobal. Also per Dao, check refund number 66523 issued to Carol Cody for$1,224.45 was never cashed and on 3-1-00 was canceled by the Auditor's Offloe. The $1,224.45 has since been returned to the Sheriffs Office accounts and the correct refund of$716.37 will be mailed to Carol Cody. Due to the fact the check issued to Carol Cody was never cashed, the shortage to Sheriffs accounts is in the amount of$446.12, which was the amount erroneously refunded to Emil Cristobal. Ef f 9-M to— Rokm r Loss: c On 10-21-02, 1 mailed a letter to Ernil Cristobal describing the refund error and making a demand for the monies erroneously refunded to him (See Attachment-4). In the letter, I requested that he contact me and offered to let him make payments on the amount if necessary. As of this date I have not received any contact from Cristobal. uwame" asr AN EmAL o0powumry emKoYgR Page 2 of 4 Aker receiving no response from Emil Cristobal, on 12-9-02 l drove to his current listed address of 1122 Via Los Traneos in San Lorenzo in order to contact him personally(See Attachment-5). The residence appeared vacant and neighbors informed me that they believed he moved several weeks prier to my arrival. None of the neighbors knew his new address. l conducted a records check but was unable to locate a more current address for Cristobal. The records check indicated that Emil Cristobal sold the property 10-30-02 (See Attachment-7 for details). I will continue my efforts to locate Cristobal and recover the monies. However, l will forward this report since my investigative leads have been exhausted and my efforts to recover the atonies unsuccessful. Cause of Account Sh4 de• The account shortage was initiated when SBC canceled two checks sent to our office to be deposited into levy accounts against two of their employees. The Auditors Office sent a udishonored checks" report to our office identifying checks which were canceled or had "stop payments"placed on them. The two SBC checks were included in the report. All of the checks in the"dishonored checks" report sent by the Auditor's Office were originals but one, which was a photocopy. Clerical Supervisor Neva Bennett was responsible for"reversing,"or subtracting, the deposits of these checks into accounts in order to maintain-accurate balances. Bennett mistook the copy of SBC check number 3000135733 to be a copy of original SBC check number 3000134236, since they outwardly appeared to be the same (See Attachment 3). For this reason, Bennett reversed or removed the deposit for SBC check number 3000134238 for$1,064.05 but not for SBC check number 3000135733 for$1,048,34 thinking it was a copy of the other check (See Attachments 1 & 2, Transaction Dates 6-22-99 & 7-7-99) . Subsequently, SBC sent a third check, number 3000137518 for $2,102.39, in payment for the two dishonored checks (See Attachments 1 &2, Transaction Date 7-20-99). Because that second check was not reversed from the accounts, or the deposit subtracted, it put both levy accounts into "overpaid'"status and refund checks were issued to Carol Cody and Emil Cristobal. 4n 8-5-99, a refund check was issued to Carol Cody for $1,224,45 and Emil Cristobal'for $446.12. Due to the accounts being placed into an "overpaid" status, Carol Cody received a refund of$1,224.45,'instead of$716.37 which she'was due, and Emil Cristobal received a refund of$446.12 that should not have been issued(See Attatch nts--1 & 2, Transaction bate 8-5-99). Since Carol Cody never cashed her refund check, the total amount.of monies paid out in error and owing to the Sheriffs Office is $446.12, which was the amount erroneously refunded to Emil Cristobal. The shortage in accounts was caused by a canceled check to be "reversed" or deleted from the civil accounting system being mistaken as a photocopy of yet another canceled check. Since the deposit was never canceled, accounts were placed into"overpaid" status and refunds were issued in error. There appeared to be no fraud or grass negligence involved' in either the creation of the shortage or the delay in its discovery.

I spoke with SBC Associate Director of Accounts Payable Robert L Miller at 314.235.1718 in St. Louis Missouri. Miller confirmed that "Stop Payments”were issued on bath checks listed above due to incorrect invoice numbers being attached. Our Office was notified by our Auditor's Office of the stop-payment on the first check and the deposit was reversed, or canceled from your account. However, our Office was unaware of the stop-payment on the second check and the deposit was never reversed, or canceled from your account. Per Robert Miller, a third check,was issued#3000137518 by SBC for$2,102.39 for payment on the two canceled checks. Due to the fact the second canceled check was not reversed from your account, it put your account in ,an overpayment status and a Technical Services pivie CMI Unit Affachment-4 520 Mellus Street •Mat#inez.Cali (925) 646-1770 MESSAGE FROM CT 'S �avci ire u l :s :GU .
