INDEX OF AUCTION TOPICS DISCUSSED
BY THE LOUISIANA AUCTIONEER LICENSING BOARD (LALB)

 Lawsuit Discussions (LALB Sued or Being Sued)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

November 5, 2014:

LAPA Vice President Robert Burns makes it emphatically clear that he
expects LALB records to be centrally located in the LALB office.  He further indicates that, if an episode
repeats itself wherein he seeks an auctioneer's records as he did for Marlo Schmidt,
and he doesn't receive relevant records, he intends to file suit for withholding the records.
To reference the letter he received from Ms. Dow while serving as a sitting LALB member, CLICK HERE.
Note:  The investigator Ms. Dow tried to cram down the Board's throat (@ $70/hour!), W. T. Asmussen,
never performed the first hour of service for the LALB after Burns confronted Ms. Dow about the
circumstances under which he was hired (i.e. no solicitation for bids!).  Soon thereafter, Ms. Steele
resumed his investigative work for the LALB at $25/hour!!!
