| Request that the Board waive the $2,000 campaign finance late fee assessed against Lori Landry, a candidate for Judge, 16th Judicial District Court, in the November 4, 2014 election, whose 2015 supplemental campaign finance disclosure report was filed 196 days late. |
|
|
Benjamin Burns, attorney for Judge Lori Landry, states that the 2015 supplemental report was late because the individuals assigned the task did not understand the filing requirements. In the future, the report preparers will be assisted by Judge Landry and Mr. Burns and both will attend the next available workshop regarding campaign finance.
