RE:
Request to waive the $100 late fee assessed against John "Bo" Staples for filing of his January 2019 Expenditure Report 2 days late.
Facts:
Mr. Staples stated that the January report was his first report as a lobbyist for the Louisiana Association of Business and Industry (LABI). It was his understanding that a staff member filed the expenditure reports for all registered lobbyists at their office. However, he stated that he has since learned that this was not the case, and that he would need to file his own report each month.
