Waiver request submitted by Nettie Burchfield, Controller for Southeastern Louisiana University, regarding a $2,000 late fee assessed for filing her 2012 R.S. 42:1114 disclosure statement 20 days late. |
|
Nettie Burchfield is employed with Southeastern Louisiana University. Ms. Burchfield received income from a person that has a contractual relationship with her governmental entity. As such, she is required to file a disclosure annual with the Board disclosing the income received.
Ms. Burchfield has been timely on all other reports dating back to 2008. Ms. Burchfield states that May is a busy time of the year for her at school and, in addition, she has been dealing with a son with health issues that led to him having his colon removed on June 7, 2013.
There are no waiver guidelines for these types of disclosures. This is Ms. Burchfield's first late filing.
