Explanation
The resolution allows the claimant, Barbara Makara, to sue the state
to recover damages. The claim has not been disposed of within two
years of the date of filing the claim. The claimant's action shall be
brought not later than one year from the date of the final adoption by
the General Assembly of this resolution. Payout on the claim, were it to
occur, would be made from the Comptroller's Adjudicated Claims
account. The total cost to the state cannot be determined as the
outcome of this future lawsuit is unknown.
The Out Years
Based on the timing of when the claim is potentially awarded and
since it would be one-time in nature there would be no out year fiscal
impact.
