Further, that the Claimant has recovered $100,000.00 from the insurer of the driver of the automobile in which he was a passenger. Further, that this Court has held on numerous occasions that recovery of the statutory limit of $100,000.00 or more from another party to an accident completely sets off any claim that may be had against the State.\nIt is therefore ordered that this cause is dismissed with prejudice.",
