        "text": "Supplemental Advisory Opinion by\nMr. Justice Yantis.\nTo the Illinois Emergency Belief Commission:\nFollowing the rendition of an Advisory Opinion heretofore rendered by this court in the above entitled matter on or about the 14th day of January, A. D. 1937, wherein a settlement for $109.00 by the Illinois Emergency Belief Commission with claimant was approved, there was filed with the Clerk of this Court an Amended Statement of Facts, wherein it appears that the original Statement submitted was erroneous in that it stated that the medical, dental and hospital bills incurred by claimant had been paid. Contrary thereto, it appears that subsequent to the rendering of such Opinion, the claimant has become a voluntary bankrupt, and in the Schedules in Bankruptcy filed by claimant, she included such medical, dental and hospital bills as unpaid debts owing by her.\nIn the Supplemental Statement now filed, it is suggested that payment of the amount of the award heretofore rendered would therefore have to be made to her Trustee in Bankruptcy, and if so made that the award wonld not discharge or pay the medical, dental and hospital bills in question as contemplated by Section 8, Sub-section (a) of the Workmen\u2019s Compensation Act.\nWherefore, a Supplemental Opinion is asked of this court as to the propriety of paying the said sum of One Hundred Nine ($109.00) Dollars heretofore awarded, and if to be paid, with whom should settlement be made.\nSection 21 of the Workmen\u2019s Compensation Act provides as follows:\n\u201cNo payment, claim, award or decision under this Act shall be assignable or subject to any lien, or garnishment, or be held liable in any way for any lien, debt, penalty or damages.\u201d\nBased upon the statements submitted herein, and under the law pertaining thereto, the court is of the opinion that the award heretofore made to claimant in the sum of One Hundred Nine ($109.00) Dollars for medical, dental and hospital bills is not subject to lien, and that such award is not payable to Claimant\u2019s. Trustee in Bankruptcy, and the Illinois Emergency Relief Commission is authorized to pay to claimant for the use of the several persons and institutions furnishing such medical, dental and hospital service, the said sum of One Hundred Nine ($109.00) Dollars. As such payments are for the specific purposes set forth, receipts should be obtained from the individuals and institutions furnishing such medical, dental and hospital service.",
