AI Summary
This bill is a claims bill that finds and declares certain claims against various state departments to be moral obligations of the state, authorizing the payment of these claims from specific funds. The bill details numerous individual and organizational claims across multiple state departments, including the Department of Health, Department of Administration, Department of Health and Human Resources, Department of Military Affairs & Public Safety, Department of Transportation, Department of Health's Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, Department of Administration's Office of Technology, and the West Virginia Developmental Disabilities Council. The claims range from relatively small amounts (such as $41.54) to significantly larger sums (like $120,450.00 for Maureen David or $220,791.27 for Source Contractors, LLC). Before any payment is made, the Legislative Claims Commission must obtain a release from each claimant that waives any further claims related to the specific matter. The funds for these payments will come from various sources including the General Revenue Fund, State Road Fund, and Special Revenue Fund. The bill essentially serves as a mechanism for the state to settle outstanding financial obligations that have been deemed moral imperatives by the Legislature, providing compensation to individuals and entities for various services, damages, or other recognized claims.
