Fiscal Note Summary
Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.
- Relocation costs: The estimated increase of $500 per claim is
based upon fifty claims per year, for a total of $25,000.

year at the statutory maximum of $1,000, for a total of $20,000.

Explanation of above estimates (including long-range effect):
This measure will have very little impact on costs of state
government because the Crime Victims Compensation Fund, a special
revenue fund, is solvent. The Court of Claims receives a federal
grant of approximately 60% of the prior year total awards.
This measure will have absolutely no impact on revenues of state
government.
