Ruffin Curt Guillory states that due to many distractions in 2023, he failed to submit his schedule B form. He has served on the Police Jury for 16 years, and this is his first time making an error. During 2023, he and his wife had many health issues. His wife had back surgery on 1/30/2023, 2/17/2023, 7/1/2023, 8/2023. She was also hospitalized for pneumonia on 3/31/2023.

Because of the mentioned issues, Mr. Guillory would like to ask that you consider waiving the assessed late fee.
