Court of Claims of Illinois

Decided April 29, 1927

Court of Claims of Illinois · decided 1927-04-29

Decided 1927-04-29

Mr. Chief Justice Clarity

¶1delivered the opinion of the court:

¶2It appears that claimant was employed as a statistical clerk in the Division of State Fair of the Department of Agriculture of the State of Illinois from the 1st day of July, 1923, until the 1st day of September, 1924, and it further appears that the- 53rd General Assembly appropriated for the salary of this position the sum of $2,100.00 per annum, which would be at the rate of $175.00 per month, and it further appears, without contradiction, that claimant only received $150.00 per month for the period above mentioned.

¶3It is the opinion of this court that the legislature intended that the occupant of this position should receive $175.00 per month for this period, which would be $300.00 more than the amount paid claimant.

¶4Therefore this court recommends that claimant be allowed the sum of $300.00.
