RE:
Request that the Board waive the $480 campaign finance late fee assessed against John Mosely, a candidate for District Judge, 1st JDC, Division G, Caddo Parish in the November 4, 2014 Election, whose 30-P campaign finance disclosure report was filed 8 days late.
Facts:
In connection with his request that the Board waive the late fee assessed for the late filing of the reports, John Mosely states that he takes full responsibility for the lateness but asks for a waiver as his CPA normally files his report, but he told them to do so after the report was late. He also states that the notices went to his prior address, likely because he did not update it. He includes an address for future correspondence to go to his office address.
