OPINION REGARDING
CONTINGENT EXPENSES
Deficiencies of Past Fiscal Year Must
Not Be Paid Out of Appropria-
ton for Ensuing Year.

Attorney General Hervey has rem
dered an opinion at the request of
the territorial auditor relating to
contingent expenses of the various
territorial Offices where the expenses
incurred exceeds the amount of the
appropriations allowed for the period
embraced in a fiscal year He main.
tains that the contingent expense fund
for the Fifty-ninth fiscal year which
began on December can not be used
to pay expenses incurred in the fifty
eighth fiscal year. Where the contin-
gent expenses have exceeded the
amount of the contingent fund avail
able for any one fiscal year he con-
tends that this deficiency must be re-
ferred to the legislature for action.
He quotes a decision of the New
Mexico supreme court handed down
in 1900 by Associate Justice Crum'
packer to bear out his opinion.
