Waiver request submitted by Joseph "Joe" Daschbach, former member of the New Orleans Charter Science and Math High School Board, regarding a $1500 late fee assessed for filing his 2019 Tier 3 annual pfd 353 days late. |
|
Mr. Daschbach stated that he served on the Board of Directors for the New Orleans Charter Math & Science High School. He filed a PFD on May 9, 2019, which he believed satisfied the filing requirements for 2019. He does not have a record of the NOD for the 2019 report; however, he states that he filed it when he realized the report filed in 2019 was not credited for the 2019 PFD filing. He believes that his efforts to complete the forms represents his good faith effort to comply with the law. He states that he humbly asks the Board for a waiver of the late fee, he has not had any conflicts disclosed on the forms, and, as a public educator, he takes his obligations seriously.
