§ 51616 State Insurance Fund Liability

• •The state won't pay more than what's in the insurance fund for any claims.
• •If the insurance money runs out, the state doesn't have to pay extra.
• •This rule is about protecting the state's money when something goes wrong.

A big storm damages a school, and fixing it costs more than the insurance covers.

The state will only pay up to the amount in the insurance fund. If the repair costs more, the state won't pay the extra money.
