State revokes Olympia CPA's credentials

The Washington State Board of Accountancy has revoked Lance M. Avery's Certified Public Accounting certificate and eligibility to renew his license to practice as a CPA.

The board said the decision was based on his failure to complete client engagements or return their records, a felony judgment and sentencing of unlawful possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver and assault in the third degree, and failure to respond to the board's inquiry.
Avery, who lives in Olympia, may not apply for a CPA license for 10 years.
