(1) Existing law bars a suit for money or damages against a public entity on a cause of action for which a claim is required to be presented, until a written claim has been presented to the public entity and acted upon by the California Victim Compensation and Government Claims Board, the governing body of a local public entity, the Judicial Council, or the Trustees of the California State University, as applicable, or has been deemed to have been rejected, except as specified. Existing law provides that no interest is payable on the amount allowed by the public entity on the claim if payment of the claim is subject to approval of an appropriation by the Legislature. However, if the appropriation is made, interest on the amount appropriated for the payment of the claim commences to accrue 30 days after the effective date of the law by which the appropriation is enacted. Interest on the amount allowed on the claim, if payment of the claim is not subject to approval of an appropriation by the Legislature, commences to accrue 30 days after the claimant accepts in writing the amount allowed on the claim in settlement of the entire claim. Existing law provides that interest accrues at the rate provided for judgments until paid. Existing law permits these terms to be varied upon written agreement of the public entity and the claimant.
