In a February 21, 2013, letter to Governor Bobby Jinal, President of the Louisiana Psychological Association, Dr. Bryan Gros, submitted the top two names of the recent election for the board. The names were Dr. Phil Griffin and Dr. Joe Comaty. Gros also asked that the Governor to appoint the person with the top number of votes, in this case Dr. Griffin, according to a copy of the letter obtained by the Times.
