Idaho Statutes Title 67. State Government and State Affairs § 67-1003. Appropriation necessary to authorize warrant

In all cases of specific appropriations, salaries, pay and expenses, ascertained and allowed by law, found due to individuals from the state, when examined, the state controller must draw warrants upon the treasury for the amount; but in cases of unliquidated accounts and claims, the adjustment and payment of which are not provided for by law, no warrants must be drawn by the state controller, or paid by the treasurer, until appropriation is made by law for that purpose, nor must the whole amount drawn for and paid for any purpose or under any one (1) appropriation ever exceed the amount appropriated, or the cash balance in the account charged, whichever is less. For the purposes of this section, the cash balance in the benefit account established in section 72-1346, Idaho Code, shall be deemed to be the cash balance in the account of this state in the unemployment trust fund established and maintained pursuant to section 904 of the social security act, as amended.
