RE:
Request that the board waive the $480 campaign finance late fee assessed against Robert W. Levy, a candidate for District Attorney, 3rd JDC, in the October 4, 2008 election, whose 2014 Supplemental 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 report, Robert W. Levy states that he has been the District Attorney for the Third Judicial District for 24 years and retired in January. He says he relied too much on others in the past 24 years to remind him of deadlines for reports, and he no longer has those reminders.
