| Request that the Board reconsider its decision to decline to waive the $1,000 campaign finance late fee assessed against Christopher Williams, an unsuccessful candidate for Sheriff, Orleans Parish, in the November 13, 2021 election, whose 2021 campaign finance disclosure report was filed 10 days late. |
|
Original request stated:
Dr. Christopher Williams didn't know that another campaign report was due in February. He thought the final report he filed in November 2021 was the last report needed. Please forgive him for making an honest mistake and grant him a waiver.
Reconsideration request states:
No new information is provided. Filer maintains this was an honest mistake from lack of understanding of the filing requirements.
