Sec. 44.77.030. - Disallowance by department.
(a) If the Department of Administration disallows a claim or demand against the state, the Department of Administration shall give the claimant and the officer who approved the voucher a written notice setting out its reasons for the disallowance.
(b) If the claim or demand is disallowed because the claimant or officer did not submit vouchers in proper form or did not comply with regulations of the Department of Administration for the presentation of claims or demands against the state, the claim or demand may be resubmitted in the proper form.
(c) If the claim or demand is disallowed on its merits, the claimant or the officer who approved the voucher may give written notice of appeal to the Department of Administration from its original decision to disallow. This notice of appeal must be given to the department within 60 days after the claimant or officer receives a written notice of disallowance. Notice of the claimant or the officer to have the decision of the disbursing officer reviewed by the department is sufficient if it shows a desire to have the Department of Administration review its original decision to disallow and may be signed by the claimant, an agent of the claimant, or the officer who approved the voucher.
