RE:
Answer submitted on behalf of Caddo Parish Juvenile Court Judge Paul Young, a member of the Louisiana Law Enforcement Commission in response to a notice of delinquency requesting he file his 2011 Tier 2.1 annual pfd.
Facts:
Caddo Parish Juvenile Court Judge Paul Young serves as a member of the Louisiana Law Enforcement Commission. On May 10, 2013, Judge Young received a notice of delinquency requesting he file his 2011 Tier 2.1 annual pfd. Judge Young stated that because he files a more comprehensive Financial Disclosure with the Supreme Court, he is not required to file a disclosure statement with this agency.

Law:
La. R.S. 42:1124.2.1 of the Code requires financial disclosure for each member and designee of a board or commission which has the authority to expend, disburse or invest $10,000 or more of funds in a fiscal year.
La. R.S. 42:1124.4 of the Code provides that upon discovery of the failure to file, failure to timely file, omission of information or inaccurate information, the Board shall notify the filer by sending him a notice of delinquency by certified mail. The notice of delinquency shall inform the person that the financial statement must be filed, or that the information must be disclosed or accurately disclosed, or that a written answer contesting the allegation of such failure, omission, or inaccuracy must be filed no later than fourteen (14) business days after receipt of the notice of delinquency.

La. R.S. 42:1124.2 requires each person holding a public office who represents a voting district having a population of 5,000 or more persons to file an annual personal financial disclosure statement on or before May 15th of each year during which the person holds office and the year following termination of the holding of such office.

Recommendations:
Advise Judge Young that he is required to file his 2011, 2012 and 2013 Tier 2.1 annual pfd in relation to his service on the the Law Enforcement commission.
Assigned Attorney: Suzanne Mooney
