RE:
Waiver request submitted by Jarred M. Jupiter, Arise Academy Charter School, regarding a $1500 late fee assessed for filing his 2019 Tier 3 annual pfd 720 days late and regarding a $500 late fee assessed for filing his 2020 Tier 3 annual pfd 123 days late.
Facts:
Jarred M. Jupiter is currently serving on the Board of Directors for Arise Charter School based in New Orleans. For both 2019 and 2020, he moved to different homes and locations due to COVID and its effects. He was not able to sign for either disclosure forms or notices in 2019 and 2020 because his address changed. Mr. Jupiter hopes to have your full consideration in this matter and have all penalties waived.
