10. Luxury Fabrics, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan, claims $216.24 for the cost of repairing a vehicle which was damaged on April 25, 1995. The claimant's car was parked in the Fairfield Inn parking lot in Madison. Three state employes driving a fleet vehicle parked next to the claimant's vehicle. The claimant states that when the state employes exited their vehicle, their left rear door banged into his vehicle, denting the door and nicking the paint. The claimant requests reimbursement for the cost of repairing the vehicle. The claimant has a $250.00 insurance deductible. The Board concludes there has been an insufficient showing of negligence on the part of the state, its officers, agents or employes and this claim is not one for which the state is legally liable nor one which the state should assume and pay based on equitable principles.

11. Elizabeth Martin of Pine River, Wisconsin, claims $317.25 for reimbursement of uninsured medical expenses related to an accident at the DOT Berlin Armory field office on April 11, 1995. The claimant was entering the building when the wind caught the door, which was very heavy. The door blew shut, trapping her foot and knocking her down. The claimant's foot was broken. She feels that the DOT should provide a safe place for all of its clients and that another entrance to the building should be used, rather than one with no landing and a heavy door subjected to the weather. She requests reimbursement of her uninsured medical costs. The Board concludes there has been an insufficient showing of negligence on the part of the state, its officers, agents or employes and this claim is not one for which the state is legally liable nor one which the state should assume and pay based on equitable principles.
12. David D. Wulf of Harshaw, Wisconsin, claims $416.94 for damage to his vehicle. The claimant is employed at the McNaughton Correctional Center in Tomahawk, WI. On December 23, 1994, his vehicle, which was parked in the Center parking lot, was scratched by an unknown person. The scratch is approximately 6 feet long and 1/2 inch wide and is located on the driver's side of the truck box. The claimant is certain that the scratch was not there before he came to work, because he stopped to get gas before work and the gas cap is on the driver's side. The claimant believes the car was vandalized because he parked in the parking slot marked for the social worker. The Board concludes there has been an insufficient showing of negligence on the part of the state, its officers, agents or employes and this claim is not one for which the state is legally liable nor one which the state should assume and pay based on equitable principles.
13. Terrance O. Harvey of Fox Lake, Wisconsin, claims $64,950.00 for damages related to the extension of his probation. The claimant's 2 year probationary period ended at midnight on April 18, 1990. On April 23, 1990, an order was signed by a Rock county Circuit Court judge extending the probation for an additional year, due to an alleged probation violation. As a result, the claimant was incarcerated from October 1, 1990, until January 6, 1992. The claimant requests payment of $150 per day he was incarcerated (433 days) for a total claim of $64,950.00. The Board concludes there has been an insufficient showing of negligence on the part of the state, its officers, agents or employes and this claim is not one for which the state is legally liable nor one which the state should assume and pay based on equitable principles.
