Applied in 3 court decisions — leading case Northwest Limestone Co. v. State Department of Transportation (1993)
Most recently applied in 627 F. Supp. 2d 976 - Accurate Controls, Inc. v. Cerro Gordo County Board of Supervisors (June 2009)
[C97, §3102; S13, §1989-a57; C24, 27, 31, 35, 39, §10308; C46, 50, 54, 58, 62, 66, 71, 73, 75, 77, 79, 81, §573.10]
Court decisions citing this, by year. The dip in the last several years is a data-coverage gap, not a real trend — our corpus holds fewer opinions from the most recent years, so recent citations are undercounted.
Claims may be filed with said officer as follows:
1. At any time before the expiration of thirty days immediately following the completion and final acceptance of the improvement.
2. At any time after said thirty-day period, if the public corporation has not paid the full contract price as herein authorized, and no action is pending to adjudicate rights in and to the unpaid portion of the contract price.
