I found out that one of our known, frequent conductors listed on CTRs changed his address. Since that time, each subsequent CTR we have filed has omitted his apartment number. For instance, we have reported his address as 12345 Addams Lane, Transylvania, PA, but we should have been reporting 12345 Addams Lane, Apt 23, Transylvania PA.
Would you fix this just on a going-forward basis, or would you consider filing corrections on all the prior CTRs?
My initial assessment is that 12345 Addams is in fact accurate; that is his street address and he can be found there. If someone hypothetically actually needed to find him they might have to call us for an apartment number or ask the landlord, but we haven't been providing incorrect info, just not perfectly complete info.
I'm inclined to fix it on a going-forward basis. The alternative is to look at 2 years of voluntary backfiling on perhaps 100 or more CTRs. I feel that this backfiling would add basically no value to the database of data available to law enforcement.
