Meghan Markle, Prince Harry's Archewell Foundation ‘delinquent,’ barred from soliciting or spending funds

foxnews.com:

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's Archewell Foundation is facing a major issue with its paperwork. In documents obtained by Fox News Digital, the charity has been declared "delinquent" by the California Registry of Charities and Fundraisers for "failing to submit required annual report(s) and/or renewal fees." Per the document, "An organization that is listed as delinquent is not in good standing and is prohibited from engaging in conduct for which registration is required, including soliciting or disbursing charitable funds.The organization may also be subject to penalties and its registration may be suspended or revoked by the Registry." "Once you submit the delinquent record(s), you will be notified of the amount of any late fees that are owed," it continues.

Representatives for Archewell and California Attorney General Rob Bonta, who signed off on the notice, did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

A source told People that the charity did file on time but a check that was sent was never received, and Archewell only became aware of the issue when the notice was issued.Their sources report a new check has been sent, and they expect the issue to be resolved quickly and reflected in the state's records within the next seven business days.

The letter, issued May 3 from the attorney general via the California Department of Justice, lists the foundation's address in Beverly Hills and notes its last renewal was completed on Feb.
