Illinois General Assembly - Bill Status for SB 186

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Court of Claims Act. Increases the maximum amount of certain claims sounding in tort or arising due to lapsed appropriations. Provides that the signature of one judge is binding if a decision is entered in a lapsed appropriation claim in which a motion or stipulation has been filed or a decision is entered on a Crime Victims Compensation Act claim. Deletes language providing that in matters involving the award of emergency funds under the Crime Victims Compensation Act, the decision of one judge is necessary to award emergency funds. Provides that from funds appropriated by the General Assembly, the court may direct immediate payment of claims against the State for unjust imprisonment. Provides that the court may direct payment of claims founded upon a contract entered into with the State without regard to whether sufficient funds remained available in the appropriation by which the contract was originally to be paid; however, the new provision does not apply to claims arising solely as a result of the lapsing of an appropriation out of which the obligation could have been paid. Adds applicability language and makes other changes.
