Orange County Clerk of Courts could have money for you

The Orange County Clerk's Office could potentially have unclaimed money for you. 

According to a press release, the checks listed on an unclaimed checks list "were mailed, but never cashed; perhaps because the intended recipient moved away and did not leave a forwarding address or put the check away and forgot about it." 

The list of 9,121 uncashed checks includes uncashed vendor payments, refunds, restitution and cash bonds "from as low as one cent up to more than $14,000."

“Our customers deserve to receive the money that is rightly theirs,” Clerk of Courts Tiffany Moore Russell said on the press release. “That is why every year we go above and beyond to spread the word about our unclaimed checks list.”

If the money is not collected by Friday, Sept. 1, the money will be forfeited and deposited into the Clerk's Fine and Forfeiture Fund per Section 116.21 of Florida Statutes.
