Government Code Claim Procedures Clause Samples

The Government Code Claim Procedures clause establishes the requirement that any claims or disputes against a government entity must first be presented and processed according to specific procedures outlined in the relevant government code before any legal action can be initiated. Typically, this involves submitting a written claim to the appropriate government office within a set timeframe, after which the government has a period to accept, reject, or negotiate the claim. This clause ensures that the government has an opportunity to address and potentially resolve disputes administratively, thereby reducing unnecessary litigation and clarifying the steps parties must follow to preserve their legal rights.

(B) In addition to any and all requirements of the Contract Documents pertaining to notices of and requests for adjustment to the Contract Time, Contract Price, or compensation or payment for additional work, disputed Work, construction claims and/or changed conditions, the Contractor must comply with the claim procedures set forth in Government Code Section 900, et seq. prior to filing any lawsuit against the Authority. (C) Such Government Code claims and any subsequent lawsuit based upon the Government Code claims shall be limited to those matters that remain unresolved after all procedures pertaining to adjustment of the Contract Time or Contract Price for additional work, disputed Work, construction claims, and/or changed conditions have been followed by Contractor.
