Waiver request submitted by Kenneth Louis "Gatorman" Schmill, Constable - St. Charles Parish, District 2 regarding a $2500 late fee assessed for filing his amended 2015 Tier 2 annual PFD 163 days late. |
|
Mr. Schmill stated that when he received the NOD asking that he amend the PFD, he thought all he needed to do was resubmit Schedule F. He assumed that the schedule was lost and the agency just needed another copy. Mr. Schmill also stated that while he did not amend correctly, he did amend timely.
Mr. Schmill also request that he be allowed to make an appearance before the board when it considers his request.
