Escheated Funds Information:

Annually, the Sheriff Civil Process Division reviews a listing of monies, which have remained unclaimed for over three years from each County Department and Agency. The Government Code section 50050-50057 provides that unclaimed monies, which remain in official custody of the officers of a local agency for a period of over three (3) years, become the property of the agency. Individual items $15.00 or more in value must be published as notification that the money will become the property of the County on a designated date if it is left unclaimed.
