Stacey Morales states that she has filed all of her documents necessary during her tenure on the Board from 2015-2018. She resigned from the Board in 2018. During the last two years of being on the Board, she lost her mother, mother-in-law, and her marriage. She transitioned jobs from LSU to state Office of Technology Services. Ms. Morales served her constituency with pride and followed all the processes of which she was aware. once she found out that she was missing documentation she sent it to the Board. These fines produce undue hardship since she had to start her life over in the last few years. Ms. Morales would appreciate your consideration to waiver her fees.
