Article 1.--GENERAL PROVISIONS

     
19-114.   Claims for services or materials pursuant to statutes
afterwards declared void.

In any and all cases where persons have been employed or materials
purchased pursuant to the terms of any statute authorizing such employment
to perform services or the purchase of materials, the compensation for
which by such statute is made a charge or claim against any county, and
after such employment and performance of services or furnishing of
materials, the statute purporting to authorize such employment and purchase
is held by the supreme court of this state to be unconstitutional and void,
the board of county commissioners of any such county shall, nevertheless,
have power and authority to entertain a claim for such services or
materials and allow and pay fair and reasonable compensation therefor.
