Request that the Board waive the $1500 late fee assessed against Robert Baumann for his failure to timely file a Lobbyist Supplemental Registration. |

Baumann believed that he was in compliance with the law. He registered within the five days of receiving notification that he would represent his client but input a retroactive date that was well beyond the 5 day period. Baumann did not lobby within the month of January.
