Opinion

PER CURIAM:

This claim was submitted for decision based upon the allegations in the Notice of Claim and respondent's Answer.

Claimant seeks payment in the amount of $40,247.49 for the cost of medical services provided to an inmate at Mount Olive Correctional Center. Respondent, in its Answer, admits the validity of the claim in this amount and further states that there were insufficient funds in its appropriation for the fiscal year in question from which to pay the claim.

While the Court believes that this is a claim which in equity and good conscience should be paid, the Court further believes that an award cannot be recommended based upon the decision in Airkem Sales and Service, et al. v. Dept. of Mental Health, 8 Ct. Cl. 180 (1971).

Claim disallowed.
