This claim was submitted for decision based on the allegations of the Notice of Claim and the respondent’s Answer.
Claimant seeks payment of the sum of $2,568.00 for six air conditioners delivered to respondent’s West Virginia State Penitentiary.
In its Answer, the respondent admits the allegations set forth in the Notice of Claim, but states also that there were no funds remaining in the respondent’s appropriation for the fiscal year in question from which the obligation could have been paid.
