J.\nOn February 13,1981, this Court rendered an opinion granting an award of $2,853.75, said sum representing $2,500.00 in back salary plus and minus certain employer contributions and employee withholdings for a total employee benefit of $2,853.75. Upon prompt notification given us by attorneys for both parties and our own independent examination of the claim, we find that the award in this case should represent damages for a tort. It was not a claim for lost wages but a settlement arising out of an alleged violation of Claimant\u2019s civil rights, for which a complaint had been filed in Federal district court. Because either the appropriated funds for payment had lapsed or there were no funds appropriated for payment of this type of matter, Claimant filed in this Court to collect the sum settled for. We approved the settlement but erroneously modified the award as described above.\nWe hereby amend our opinion of February 13,1981, and order Claimant to be awarded the sum of $2,500.00.",
