JUDGMENTS: Appropriates funds for payment of the consent judgment against the state in the suit entitled Nepal et al. v. Tiger Pointe Owner, LLC et al.
HB 604 appropriates $10,833.00 from Louisiana's state general fund for Fiscal Year 2025-2026 to pay a court-ordered consent judgment. The bill funds the state's obligation to Sulochana Dhungana Nepal (on behalf of her deceased husband, Binod Nepal) in the case *Nepal v. Tiger Pointe Owner, LLC et al.*, covering principal, interest, court costs, and expert fees. Payment must be made using the appropriated funds, and interest stops accruing once the bill takes effect. This is a procedural funding measure for an existing court judgment, not a new policy.
