RE:
Request that the Board waive a $600 campaign finance late fee assessed against C. Sherburne Sentell, unopposed candidate for City Judge, City Court, City of Minden, Webster Parish, in the November 3, 2020 election, whose 30-P campaign finance disclosure report was filed 10 days late.
Facts:
C. Sherburne Sentell requests a waiver and states the following:

He takes full responsibility, but he was dealing with COVID issues at the Minden City Court, his personal law firm and at the parish library where his wife is employed and was distracted and missed the deadline. Him, his wife and parents (his father is his law partner) all tested positive for Covid in October and were sick and quarantined for several weeks. His income has been substantially impacted by Covid.
