Summary

Existing law requires local agencies, as defined, to retain money, that remains unclaimed and that is not the property of the local agency in its treasury or in the official custody of its officers, for a period of 3 years, after which time, if the money, excluding victim restitution money, has not been claimed, it reverts to the local agency, as specified. Existing law requires moneys constituting restitution for victims to be placed into a Restitution Fund or used for victim services after the 3-year period. This bill would require a local agency to document that it has made a reasonable effort to locate and notify the victim to whom the restitution is owed if, at the expiration of the 3-year period, the local agency elects to use restitution funds for victim services.
