Section 11275.

If, upon receipt of the statement provided in Section 11274, the state agency does not have funds available by law for the payment of the administrative costs, or if it has any other reason why the payment of those costs should not be made at the time specified on the statement, the state agency shall, prior to the expiration of the 30-day period referred to in the statement, file with the Controller, in duplicate, a written request to defer payment of those administrative costs, which request shall set forth the reasons why that payment should be deferred. Upon receipt of any request filed because of lack of availability of funds, the Controller shall forthwith transmit one copy of that request to the Department of Finance and shall defer action to effect the transfer of funds covering the administrative costs referred to in the request until the transfer has been approved by the Director of Finance. The Department of Finance shall notify the Controller of the approval of the deferral request. Upon receipt of any request filed because of any reason other than lack of availability of funds, the Controller shall forthwith transmit one copy of that request to the California Victim Compensation and Government Claims Board and shall defer action to effect the transfer of funds until that transfer has been approved by the California Victim Compensation and Government Claims Board.
