The commission, by order, may suspend or modify any of the reporting requirements of the Nebraska Political Accountability and Disclosure Act, in a particular case, for good cause shown, or if it finds that literal application of the act works a manifestly unreasonable hardship and if it also finds that such suspension or modification will not frustrate the purposes of the act. Any such suspension or modification shall be only to the extent necessary to substantially relieve the hardship. The commission shall suspend or modify any reporting requirements only if it determines that facts exist that are clear and convincing proof of the findings required by this section.
