OPINION ISSUED DECEMBER 29, 2000
FERGUSON BROTHERS PLUMBING
AND HEATING COMPANY
VS.
DIVISION OF CORRECTIONS
(CC-00-467)

Claimant appeared pro se.

Joy M. Bolling, Assistant Attorney General, for respondent.
PER CURIAM:

This claim was submitted for decision based upon the
allegations in the Notice of Claim and respondent's Answer.

Claimant seeks $133.75 for air-conditioner repair and a spring
inspection at the Huntington Work/Study Release Center, a facility
of respondent in Cabell County. The documentation for these
services was not processed for payment within the appropriate
fiscal year; therefore, claimant has not been paid. In its Answer,
respondent admits the validity of the claim as well as the amount,
and states that there were sufficient funds expired in the
appropriate fiscal year from which the invoice Cabell County could
have been paid.

Accordingly, the Court makes an award to claimant in the
amount of $133.75.

Award of $133.75.
