- (1) It shall be the duty of each state department and agency to file with the Claims Advisory Board a Notice of Possibility of Claim covering any occurrence which would be the subject of a Notice of Claim as provided in Code Section 28-5-80. Such Notice of Possibility of Claim shall be filed on forms provided by the Board and furnished to each state department and agency upon request.
- (2) It shall be the duty of each state department and agency to file a Notice of Possibility of Claim within 30 days after the date of any such occurrence.
- (3) If filed within the same time limitations relative to the filing of Notices of Claims over $5,000.00, as provided in Code Section 28-5-80 and Code Section 28-5-86, a Notice of Possibility of Claim shall be sufficient for action to be taken thereon; and the fact that no Notice of Claim has been filed within the time provided shall not prevent the introduction of a resolution and action thereon. In such an event, provided that the claimant has secured a member of the House of Representatives to sponsor a resolution on his/her behalf and the Board receives notice of such sponsorship, the Board shall forward a list of required supporting documents to the claimant and to such Representative, or to the office of legislative counsel, at the request of such Representative.
