RULE §18.17Report Must be Filed

(b) A filer, other than the treasurer of a political committee, who dies or becomes incapacitated is considered to have filed the report on the date of the filer's death or the date the filer is determined to be incapacitated, as applicable, for purposes of this chapter. In this subsection, "incapacitated" means determined by a judgment of a court exercising probate jurisdiction to be either partially mentally incapacitated without the right to vote or totally mentally incapacitated.
