RESOLUTION CONFIRMING THE CLAIMS COMMISSIONER'S COMPENSATION AWARD TO VERNON HORN WITH RESPECT TO HIS CLAIM AGAINST THE STATE FOR WRONGFUL INCARCERATION.

This resolution confirms a $4,817,954 compensation award to Vernon Horn for wrongful incarceration by the state. It directly affects Horn, who was wrongfully imprisoned, and requires the state to pay the full amount from the General Fund's Adjudicated Claims Account. The bill is procedural, simply formalizing the Claims Commissioner's prior decision without altering existing laws or creating new policies. This is a one-time payment with no ongoing fiscal impact.
