Perhaps the $1000 fine was for something that took place after the incident these charges are related to. Perhaps he had already extricated himself, but was found to be in violation for something he did earlier.

The fine was a civil penalty (with a lower burden of proof) not criminal. So same facts, but not a double jeopardy situation.
