Waiver request submitted by Michael D. Gillie, Jr., Chief of Police / Natchez / Natchitoches, regarding a $500 late fee assessed for filing his 2023 Tier 3 annual pfd 417 days late. |

Chief Michael Gillie of the Natchez Police Department attempted to submit the PFD on 12/9/2024. He did not realize the disclosure had not been correctly submitted until the last week of January 2026. A BOE representative also notified Mr. Gillie that he attempted to upload a JPG file, but it is not an acceptable submission format. This mishap was unintentional. He would like to request a waiver of the assessed late fee so he can move forward with his proper online obligation.
