Waiver request submitted by Harold Allbritton, a member of the Spearsville Board of Aldermen, regarding a $1,500 late fee assessed for filing his 2010 Tier 3 annual pfd days late. |
|
Mr. Albritton states that he believes he is exempted from filing Tier 3 annual pfds. It appears from the information provided by Mr. Albritton that he is confusing the filing requirements under pfd provisions with those provisions addressing campaign finance. There are some requirements, if met, that would exempt filers from having to file campaign finance reports. However, there are no laws which exempt a filer from having to file pfds.
