WHEREAS on March 20, 1997, Respondent pled guilty to two counts of financial institution fraud, 18 U.S.C. §1344, and two counts of embezzlement by a credit union employee, 18 U.S.C. §657. United States v. Myrick, Case No. 97-20017-H (W.D. Tenn.);

WHEREAS a violation of 18 U.S.C. §§1344 and 657 each is a crime involving dishonesty or breach of trust which is punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year under Federal law;

WHEREAS on June 13, 1997, Respondent was convicted and sentenced for those offenses to a term of eighteen (18) months in prison, followed by a term of five (5) years supervised release, and ordered to pay $168,474 in restitution:

WHEREAS on February 3, 1998, respondent executed a "Stipulation and Consent to Final Order of Prohibition" pursuant to 12 U.S.C. §1786(g), permanently barring her from participating in the affairs of any federally-insured financial institution, which "Stipulation and Consent" was accepted on behalf of the NCUA Board by its counsel;

WHEREAS Respondent has waived her right to an administrative hearing as provided in 12 U.S.C. §1786(g)(4), and has further waived her right to seek judicial review of this Final Order of Prohibition or to otherwise challenge its validity or legality; and
