Summary
Existing law requires the Attorney General, when there is not a sufficient appropriation for the payment of certain claims, settlements, or judgments, to report the claims, settlements, and judgments to the chairperson of either the Senate Committee on Appropriations or the Assembly Committee on Appropriations, who is then required to cause introduction of legislation appropriating necessary funds for payment. This bill would appropriate $813,000 from the General Fund and $5,420,541.90 from the Motor Vehicle Account within the State Transportation Fund to the Attorney General to pay the settlement in specified cases. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
