| Request that the Board reconsider waiving the $3,000 campaign finance late fee assessed against Friends of Marlin Gusman PAC, a political action committee, and its committee's chairperson, Brian King, related to its participation in the October 14, 2017 election, whose 30-P campaign finance report has not been filed. |
|
|
Brian King, the chairperson for Friends of Marlin Gusman PAC, states that they did not have financial activity in excess of $500 within a calendar year in the name of the committee. As he understands it, under 18:1483 this means they were not required to file the 30-P report.
