| Waiver request submitted by Michael D. Vicari, former member of the Naval War Memorial Commission, regarding a $1500 late fee assessed for filing his 2022 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 103 days late. |
|
|
In January 2019, Michael D. Vicari emailed his resignation to the Naval War Memorial Commission Board Chairman. He did not respond, but he reiterated in a brief phone conversation. Mr. Vicari did not receive any further notifications regarding his obligations on the Board. In March 2020, he was placed on orders in support of COVID-19 operations for the Louisiana Army National Guard. He was deployed to Iraq from November 2020 to November 2021. After receiving the FTF notice in 2023, he contacted the LBOE to explain and was told the matter would be investigated. He later received late fees. His deployment and lack of communication from the Naval War Memorial Commission during this time were beyond his control. Please waive the late fee.
