The bond was transmitted to the Department of Financial Institutions of the State of Illinois by the applicant, Edna J. Maloney and James E. Maloney, Jr., doing business as E. and J. Confectionery Store. Believing its bond to be duly issued, claimant paid to the Secretary of State the sum of $2,582.00 to cover checks returned by a bank for insufficient funds.\nThe Attorney General, representing the State of Illinois, has entered into a stipulation with claimant acknowledging that the sum in question was paid to the State of Illinois on the basis of a mistake of fact, and has agreed to the entry of an order in favor of claimant.\nIn view of the stipulation of the parties hereto, this Court hereby awards to claimant, American States Insurance Company, A Corporation, the sum of $2,582.00.",
