On January 23, 2004, the Attorney General denied the applicant s claim pursuant to R.C. 2743.52(A) contending that the applicant failed to prove the decedent qualifies as a victim of criminally injurious conduct under the motor vehicle exception as defined in R.C. 2743.51(C)(1). On February 2, 2004, the applicant filed a request for reconsideration. On March 4, 2004, the Attorney General denied the claim once again. On March 11, 2004, the applicant filed an appeal of the Attorney General s March 4, 2004 Final Decision. Hence, this matter came to be heard before this panel of three commissioners on June 2, 2004 at 10:45 A.M. Neither the applicant nor anyone on her behalf appeared at the hearing. An Assistant Attorney General attended the hearing and presented a brief summary of the case. The Assistant Attorney General reiterated that the claim must be denied pursuant to R.C. 2743.52(A) since the applicant has failed to prove, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the decedent qualifies as a victim of criminally injurious conduct under the motor vehicle exception, as defined in R.C. 2743.51(C)(1). From review of the file and with full and careful consideration given to all the information presented at the hearing, we find that the March 4, 2004 decision of the Attorney General shall be affirmed. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED THAT 1) The March 4, 2004 decision of the Attorney General is AFFIRMED; 2) This claim is DENIED and judgment is rendered in favor of the state of Ohio; 3) Costs are assumed by the court of claims victims of crime fund. _______________________________________ CLARK B.
