The resolution, designated as Substitute House Joint Resolution No. 86, addresses the claim made by Melissa Steinhilper, the Administratrix of the Estate of Amanda Monington, against the state. It vacates the previous decision made by the Claims Commissioner to dismiss this claim and remands it back to the Claims Commissioner for a hearing on its merits. This action allows for a thorough examination of the claim rather than a dismissal without consideration.

The resolution was reported favorably by the Judiciary Committee, with a unanimous vote of 39-0, indicating strong support for the measure. Importantly, the resolution is noted to have no fiscal impact on the state or municipalities, as it simply facilitates the process for the claim to be heard rather than imposing any financial obligations.
