RE:
Request that the Board waive the $1,500 late fee assessed against Kimberly Robinson for failure to timely file her 2012 Lobbyist Supplemental Registration.
Facts:
Ms. Robinson filed her Supplemental Registration report that was due by March 6, 2012, thirty days late on April 5, 2012. She was assessed a late fee of $1,500.





Ms. Robinson states that incorrect start dates for several companies were listed by a new assistant. They have since trained the new assistant and she is confident that they will not have such problems in the future.
