No part of this expenditure has been paid and the total outstanding is $1,911.18. Money was appropriated under appropriation and fund # 011-49426-1200-0000 of which appropriation sufficient funds for the payment of this obligation lapsed and were returned to the State Treasury.\nThe sole reason said claim was not paid is due to the lapse of the appropriation for the period during which the debt was incurred.\nIt is hereby ordered that the Claimant be awarded, in full satisfaction of any and all claims presented to the State of Illinois under the above captioned cause, the sum of $1,911.18 (one thousand nine hundred eleven and 18/100 dollars).",
