The court dismissed the municipality's claim for recourse against the region regarding overpaid sick benefits. The municipality argued the region failed to verify eligibility before payment, while the region contended the error was minor and not attributable to negligence. The court ruled that without proof of intentional misconduct or gross negligence by the region's officials, no legal basis exists for the municipality to seek reimbursement.
