                    TITLE 28--JUDICIAL ADMINISTRATION
 
              CHAPTER I--DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE (Continued)
 
PART 104--SEPTEMBER 11TH VICTIM COMPENSATION FUND OF 2001--Table of Contents
 
        Subpart D--Amount of Compensation for Eligible Claimants.
 
Sec. 104.41  Amount of compensation.


    As provided in section 405(b)(1)(B)(ii) of the Act, in determining 
the amount of compensation to which a claimant is entitled, the Special 
Master shall take into consideration the harm to the claimant, the facts 
of the claim, and the individual circumstances of the claimant. The 
individual circumstances of the claimant may include the financial needs 
or financial resources of the claimant or the victim's dependents and 
beneficiaries. As provided in section 405(b)(6) of the Act, the Special 
Master shall reduce the amount of compensation by the amount of 
collateral source compensation the claimant (or, in the case of a 
Personal Representative, the victim's beneficiaries) has received or is 
entitled to receive as a result of the terrorist-related aircraft 
crashes of September 11, 2001. In no event shall an award (before 
collateral source compensation has been deducted) be less than $500,000 
in any case brought on behalf of a deceased victim with a spouse or 
dependent, or $300,000 in any case brought on behalf of a deceased 
victim who was single with no dependents.
