Mr. Covington is requesting a waiver of his late fee due to financial hardship. He states that his family has been dealing with medical expenses as the result of his mother-in-law passing away in April of 2018 after a lengthy illness as well as his wife's need for a hip replacement surgery in September, 2018 and his father being placed in a nursing home in October, 2018. He states that he inadvertently left off his signature on his report and will see to it that he does not repeat the mistake.
