| Request to waive the $1,500 late fee assessed against Thomas Turner for failure to timely file a Lobbying Registration Report. |
|
Mr. Turner is the owner of Turner Solutions in Baton Rouge. This is his first time registering as a lobbyist. He stated that he started his online registration in December 2016. He stated that he did not read the section that mentioned about the 20 day time frame to pay the lobbying registration fee. He states that his work schedule has been busy due to grain season and was not sure whether he would be able to lobby this year. When he realized he had time, he stated that he paid his registration fees. Mr. Turner states he overlooked the fees and should have read the application further. He states that he can not afford the $1,500 late fee.
