Two Washington residents were sentenced to three years of probation in federal court Wednesday.
According to information presented to the court, Ethan Gordon, 30, and Julia Jolly, 37, submitted false Payroll Protection Program (PPP) loan applications. The PPP applications were for pandemic relief loans administered by the Small Business Administration. One false application was submitted in Gordon’s name, and one in Jolly’s name, resulting in a combined loss of $61,852 to the government.
Gordon and Jolly were also ordered to jointly repay that amount.
