Shinrone Farms, Inc. v. Gosch

McGIVERIN, Justice.

Plaintiff, Shinrone Farms, Inc. (Shin-rone), obtained a writ of mandamus ordering defendants Sac County, and its board of supervisors, auditor and treasurer, to honor and pay Shinrone’s claim for brucellosis indemnity pursuant to chapter 164, The Code. Defendants urge reversal of trial court’s order on the theory that chapter 164 does not permit payment of most of plaintiff’s claim because there was an inadequate sum of money in the county brucellosis eradication fund in the fiscal year the claim was certified. We find no error and affirm the court’s order.
