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 has been reported favorably by the Judiciary Committee, with a unanimous vote of 39-0 in support. Importantly, the fiscal impact statement indicates that this resolution will not result in any financial implications for the state or municipalities, as it merely facilitates the process for the claim to be heard.
