RE:
Request that the Board waive the $1500 late fee assessed against Michael Michot for his failure to timely file a Lobbyist Supplemental Registration.
Facts:
There was a clerical oversight reporting the End Date of Representation of Mr. Michot's client, Flightline, and not an attempt to evade responsibility. The error was immediately corrected and filed upon discovery. Safeguards have been internally implemented to avoid any possibility of a reoccurrence of this type of error, and he apologizes.
