Waiver request submitted by Clifton Morris, Constable / District 2 / East Feliciana Parish, regarding a $2500 late fee assessed for filing his amended 2020 Tier 2 annual pfd 351 days late. |

Mr. Clifton "Cliff" Morris states due to unforeseen circumstances, the NOD sent on 04/22/2022 was misplaced or lost. During this time, his mother passed away and he was in the process of selling the home they shared. There were also medical issues he was experiencing at the time. The Board's consideration to waive the late fees is greatly appreciated.
