Bill > SB55

This bill appropriates $650,000 from the state's general fund to the extraordinary litigation fund, which is a fund established to cover costs associated with significant legal cases. The purpose of this appropriation is to pay for eligible expenses related to these legal matters, as outlined in a specific section of existing law (§ 1-33-8.11). The bill also designates the commissioner of the Bureau of Human Resources and Administration to approve these expenses, and the state auditor will then issue warrants to pay them. Any funds not used or committed by the end of the fiscal year will be returned to the general fund according to established procedures. Finally, the bill declares an emergency, meaning it will take effect immediately upon its passage and approval, because it is deemed necessary for the support of the state government and its public institutions.
