(2) The provisions of this section do not apply to an employee or official in the judicial branch.
(3) Claims for injunctive relief need not be reported as claims seeking monetary compensation.
(4) Demands deemed to be frivolous by governmental entities need not be reported under this section, and judicial review is not available to challenge any such determination made by a governmental entity.
