10-1843. Court action upon refusal to pay
claim


In the event the director of the department of administration refuses to approve any
claim presented as provided in section 10-1841, the claimant may file a complaint in the
superior court in Maricopa county, and shall serve a copy thereof upon the attorney
general, alleging the nature of his claim and praying that the money or securities be
paid or delivered to him. If the court finds for the plaintiff, judgment shall be
entered accordingly, and the court shall certify the judgment to the director of the
department of administration, who shall thereupon issue the order or draw the warrant as
provided in section 10-1842. Appeal may be taken from the judgment of the superior court
as in other cases.
