IC 5-16-8-3: Payment contingent upon compliance; recovery of payments made upon noncomplying contracts

Sec. 3. A public agency may not authorize or make any payments to a person under a contract containing the provision required by section 2 of this chapter unless the public agency is satisfied that such person has fully complied with that provision. Payments made to a person by a public agency which should not have been made as a result of this section shall be recoverable directly from the contractor or subcontractor who did not comply with section 2 of this chapter by the attorney general upon suit filed in the circuit court, superior court, or probate court of the county in which the contract was executed or performed.
