AI Summary

This bill appropriates $25,000 from the Louisiana State General Fund in Fiscal Year 2024-2025 to pay a specific legal judgment in the case of Troy Singleton versus State Farm Fire & Casualty Insurance Company and Terrill Talamo Agency, L.L.C. The judgment was signed on January 17, 2024, and is associated with case number 2018-13505 in the Twenty-Second Judicial District Court of St. Tammany Parish. The bill specifies that the payment will cover the judgment's principal, interest, court costs, and expert witness fees, and can only be paid after the judgment becomes final. The payment will be made to the state treasurer upon presentation of required documentation, and the bill stipulates that the judgment will be considered paid on the bill's effective date, at which point interest will stop accruing. The bill will become effective either upon the governor's signature, after the time for bill signing expires, or if vetoed and subsequently approved by the legislature, on the day following legislative approval.
