RETURNED CHECKS

activein force · 2012-12-21 – presentact-effective-date

When an outside check for the COIF is returned by the United States Treasury (Treasury) for

insufficient funds, OFM staff send the inmate, via Unit Management staff, a copy of the debit

voucher received from Treasury. The debit voucher is entered into the automated accounting

system and the debt re-established as an accounts receivable. Unit Management staff use the

debit voucher to adjust the SENTRY obligation for the returned check amount.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing.

Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
