RE:
Advisory opinion regarding whether police officers for the LSUPD may accept gifts as Police Officers of the Year.
Facts:
The LSUPD is looking to give a Police of the Year Award. In connection with the award, the police department would like to give the winner an option of attendance at a Non-SEC home game off with sideline or suite passes to the officer, along with a gift certificate to a local restaurant. The option of a home game off may or may not be taken due to another option of picking whichever home football game assignment of the officers choosing. The arrangements of the home football game would be donated by LSU Athletics with no exchange or refunds. There would also be a gift certificate to a restaurant purchased by the LSUPD Chief of Police and the LSUPD Union President.
Law:
Section 1111A prohibits a public servant from receiving anything of economic value for the performance of his job duties other than the compensation and benefits from the governmental entity to which he is duly entitled.
Recommendations:
Adopt the proposed advisory opinion.
Assigned Attorney: Aneatra Boykin
