6 Ill. Ct. Cl. 280

(No. 1468

Loren Harmon, Claimant, vs. State of Illinois, Respondent.

Opinion filed May 9, 1929.

M. J. Faletti, for claimant.

Oscar E. Carlstrom, Attorney General; Roy D. Johnson, Assistant Attorney General, for respondent.

Mr. Chief Justice Clarity

delivered the opinion of the court:

It appears that claimant was employed by the State of Illinois in the Department of Public Works and Buildings, Division of Highways. It appears that while on a bumper choking truck, another truck crashed into the claimant and received an injury to his left hip and that hip was draining for a long time; that the State did not pay his doctor bills; that he had to undergo an operation in December, 1928.

*281It appears that the doctor bills and other services for the benefit of claimant and loss of time amounted to $1,196.50. The Attorney General comes and recommends that claimant be allowed said amount.

Therefore it is recommended by the court that claimant be allowed the sum of Eleven Hundred Ninety-six and 50/100 ($1,196.50) Dollars.
