Request that the Board waive the $420.00 campaign finance late fee assessed against Roger P. Hamilton, Jr., a candidate for District Judge, 16th JDC, ES 1, Div. H, Iberia, St. Martin and St. Mary Parishes in a future election, whose 2024 Annual campaign finance disclosure report was filed 9 days late. |

Michael J. Abney, on behalf of Roger P. Hamilton, requests a waiver and states the following: Mr. Hamilton has a history of filing timely reports. Storm Enzo struck Louisiana on 1/21/2025, leading to unexpected administrative issues. This caused a temporary disruption in their usual business operations beyond their control. Steps have been taken to submit and ensure that all future reports are filed on time. They would like to thank you for considering this matter and request a waiver of the assessed late fee.
