1Opinion of the CourtMead, J.
[¶ 1] Jeanannette Waning appeals from a judgment of the Superior Court (Cumberland County, Cole, J.) dismissing her complaint against the Maine Department of Transportation (MDOT). The dismissal resulted from the court’s conclusion that Waning’s appeal from a decision of the State Claims Commission, taken by filing a complaint pursuant to 23 M.R.S. § 157 (2007), 1 failed because she did not provide the Commission with notice of her appeal within thirty days of its award to her as required by 23 M.R.S. § 156 (2007). 2 We vacate the judgment.
