RE:
Request that the Board waive the $600 campaign finance late fee assessed against Jeffrey L. Evans, a candidate for DeSoto Parish Coroner in the October 24, 2015 election, whose 30-P campaign finance disclosure reports was 11 days late.
Facts:
In connection with the request that the Board waive the late fee assessed for the late filing of the report, Gary V. Evans states that Jeffrey L. Evans is a general practice family doctor in a small town and his duties require an extraordinary amount of time.
