Counsel

Claimant appeared pro se., Joy M. Cavallo, Assistant Attorney General, for respondent.

Radiology, Inc. v. Division of Corrections

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM:

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

Claimant seeks payment in the amount of $33.00 for medical services rendered to an inmate in the Cabell County Jail, but who is supposed to be in the custody of the respondent. Respondent, in its Answer, admits the validity of the claim, but states that there were insufficient funds in its appropriation for the fiscal year in question from which to pay the claim.

While the Court believes that this is a claim which in equity and good conscience should be paid, the Court further believes that an award cannot be *14recommended based upon the decision in Airkem Sales and Service, et al. vs. Dept. of Mental Health, 8 Ct. Cl. 180 (1971).

Claim disallowed.
