OPINION ISSUED OCTOBER 19, 1999
CHARLESTON DEPARTMENT STORE
VS.
PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION
(CC-99-373)

Claimant appeared pro se.

Joy M. Cavallo, 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 $463.79 for providing work clothing to
respondent. The documentation for the merchandise 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 could have been paid.

Accordingly, the Court hereby makes an award to claimant in
the amount of $463.79.

Award of $463.79.
