Jeremy Mikel Williams' grandmother-in-law lives with him and typically handles the mail, but she was ill and forgot to give Mr. Williams the notice. He was not made aware of the deadline until after it passed. Once he realized the oversight, the PFD was immediately filed. Mr. Williams takes his ethical responsibilities seriously and has always made a good-faith effort to comply. He would like to thank you for your consideration and request a waiver of the assessed late fee.
