Well, I won't go into detail, because anything we got was confidential, but yes, a member submits a claim for expenses, as you all do. I don't anymore, but I did. You put in this claim, and the officials of the board and the staff of the board examine these claims and decide whether they're allowed or not, in accordance with the rules of the board.
Sometimes a member was very annoyed with the ruling from the staff person because they disallowed a particular claim and the expense was not permitted. The member would come to the board. The member would ask to appear and would come and argue that he or she should be allowed to make this claim because blah, blah, blah. The board would hear the claim and make a decision.
