Senate committee report advances claims settlement bill citing exoneration payment
Summary
A Senate committee reported Senate File 3446, the annual claims settlement appropriation bill, to the floor. The report said the 2025 claims bill includes appropriations totaling $72,381 and a provision for reimbursement to the Department of Corrections and payments for permanent injuries, and noted an exoneration named Vincent Fellow.
A Senate committee reported Senate File 34 46, the annual claims settlement appropriation bill, to the floor on May 8, 2025. The committee on finance recommended amending the bill and that, when amended, the bill should pass.
Sponsor remarks on the floor summarized the bill’s purpose and contents. “The 2025 claims bill appropriates a total of $72,381,” a committee presenter said on the floor, and the bill includes one exoneration claim, a reimbursement to the Department of Corrections, and a payment for permanent injuries. The presenter noted the joint subcommittee on claims approved the recommendations unanimously and singled out an exonerated individual named Vincent Fellow referenced in the bill.
The secretary read the bill for its third reading on the floor during the session. The transcript records the committee report and the secretary’s reading; it does not record a final roll‑call tally for Senate File 34 46 in the provided excerpt.
Because the transcript does not show subsequent action on SF 3446 beyond the committee report and third reading call, the bill’s final status after that reading is not recorded in this excerpt.
