SB 1052 Summary

• Amends Arizona Revised Statutes Section 35-188 regarding setoff debts against the state.

• Changes "set-off" to "setoff" (single word) for consistent terminology throughout the statute.

• Requires debts claimed as setoff against the state to be exhibited to and allowed by the director of the department of administration.

• Allows a debt as setoff when the defendant possesses vouchers that could not be produced to the department, or was prevented from exhibiting the claim due to absence from state, sickness, or unavoidable accident.

• Changes "which" to "that" in reference to vouchers as a technical grammatical correction.
