Indemnification payment for Kurt Von Minden

The state pays $354,456.23 from the General Fund to the trust account of Fiedler Law Firm for Kurt Von Minden (Indemnification Claims CI 24-3163 and CI 24-4457). The payment follows settlements or court judgments that require legislative approval.

Workers' comp payments for injured workers

The state pays seven workers’ compensation claims from the Workers’ Compensation Claims Revolving Fund, totaling $1,167,500. Payments go to trust accounts for: Greg Mosley ($400,000); Stewart Craig ($162,500); Kenneth Cobb ($20,000); Todd Rasmussen ($300,000); Anthony O. Dix, Jr. ($110,000); Tina Vaughn ($125,000); and Tiffany Mills ($50,000).

Agency debt write-offs approved

The law approves agency debt write-offs reviewed by the State Claims Board: $856 (State Fire Marshal); $1,032,144.79 (Health and Human Services); $98,759.21 (Transportation); $1,708,343.43 (Labor); and $2,647.70 (Veterans’ Affairs). These changes adjust agency books and do not create payments to households.

How these state payments are issued

The Director of Administrative Services must draw warrants for each named beneficiary once proper vouchers are presented. The State Treasurer pays the warrants from the listed funds. No warrant is delivered until each beneficiary files a receipt and full release.
