RE:
Consideration of the assessment of the enhanced penalty pursuant to La. R.S. 18:1505.4A(4)(a) for Cedric Bradford Glover, candidate for State Representative, District 4, in the October 12, 2019 election, for his failure to file a 30-P campaign finance disclosure report.
Facts:
A hearing was held before the Ethics Adjudicatory Board (EAB) on August 20, 2020, at which the EAB determined:

Cedric Bradford Glover was a successful candidate for the office of State Representative, District 4 in the October 12, 2019 election. The office of State Representative, District 4, is a "District" level office.

Mr. Bradford failed to file his 30-P report.

The EAB rendered a decision authorizing the Louisiana Board of Ethics to impose an additional fine of not more than $10,000.

Law:
La. R.S. 18:1495.4A provides that the candidate is responsible for the filing of campaign finance disclosure reports by the deadlines provided in the CFDA.

La. R.S. 18:1484(1) requires each major and district office candidate to file certain campaign finance disclosure reports.

La. R.S. 18:1495.4(B) requires each major and district office candidate to file a 30-P, 10-P and 10-G report.


La. R.S. 18:1505.1A provides that failure to submit the reports required by the CFDA shall constitute a violation of the CFDA.

La. R.S. 18:1505.1B provides that failure to submit the reports required by the CFDA at the time required shall constitute a violation of the CFDA.

La. R.S. 18:1505.4A(4)(a) provides that the Board of Ethics may impose on any person required to file such a report, who has not filed the report by the sixth day after the report is due and after an adjudicatory hearing by the Ethics Adjudicatory Board, an additional civil penalty not to exceed ten thousand dollars.


Recommendations:
Assess a civil penalty of $10,000 for failure to file 30-P campaign finance disclosure report.

Assigned Attorney: Charles Reeves
