A BILL finding and
declaring a claim against the state and its agency to be a moral obligation of
the state; and directing the Auditor to issue warrants for the payment thereof.
Be it enacted by the
Legislature of West Virginia:
§1. Finding and declaring a certain claim against New
River Community and Technical College to be a moral obligation of the state and
directing payment thereof.
The Legislature has
heretofore made findings of fact that the state has received the benefit of the
commodities received and/or services rendered by a certain claimant and has
considered this claim against the state and New River Community and Technical
College, an agency thereof, which has arisen due to over-expenditures of the
departmental appropriations by officers of the state spending unit, the claim
having been previously considered by the Legislative Claims Commission, which
also found that the state has received the benefit of the commodities received
and/or services rendered by the claimant, but was denied by the Legislative
Claims Commission on the purely statutory grounds that to allow the claim would
be condoning an act contrary to the laws of the state. The Legislature, pursuant to its findings of fact
and also by the adoption of the findings of fact by the Legislative Claims
Commission as its own, while not condoning such illegal act, hereby declares it
to be the moral obligation of the state to pay this claim in the amount
specified below and directs the Auditor to issue a warrant upon receipt of
properly executed requisitions supported by itemized invoices, statements, or
other satisfactory documents as required by section ten, article three, chapter
twelve of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, for the payment thereof
out of any fund appropriated and available for the purpose.
(TO BE PAID FROM SPECIAL REVENUE FUND)

NOTE: The purpose of this bill is
to provide payment to certain claimants who provided commodities and/or
services to the state, but who were not paid because the agency reached its
budget limit.
Total amount from Special
Revenue: $74,296.58
