Anybody can file anything all the time, but they might not have a hope in heck because they don't meet the criteria. I'm not sure that's requiring the officers of the court to give sufficient information to the court in order to make a proper determination on whether or not these persons may or may not make a valid claim. Simply anybody can apply. In other words, what it's saying is there are these other damage funds, but it's not putting that together with the person who suffered the damage. I'm just wondering if it might make more sense to say “is entitled to make a claim”. It doesn't say that they actually have to have their claim paid, but at least it says they're entitled to make a claim. I'm presuming that under those conventions there are criteria for who can make application to have damages compensated.
I'm not trying to cause trouble. I'm just trying to make sure that the intent is covered by what the government is intending to do.
