EDUCATION CODE
SECTION 85270-85272




85270.  Unless otherwise provided by county ordinance, any school
warrant not presented to the county treasurer within six months after
it was issued is void and any order issued by the governing board of
a community college district, but not approved by the county
superintendent of schools for want of funds, is void if not presented
to the county superintendent of schools within two years after
notice has been given that the order will be approved on
presentation. The county auditor shall each month inform the county
superintendent of schools of warrants which have become void during
the preceding month and the county superintendent of schools shall
transmit such information to the governing board of the district
together with information as to orders which have become void.
   Any time within two years from the date on which the original
warrant became void, the payee, assignee, or the legal representative
or heir of a deceased payee of any warrant which is void as provided
in this section may present such warrant to the governing board of
the community college district which issued the order on which the
warrant was drawn, or declare by affidavit that such warrant has been
lost or destroyed, and the governing board may adopt an order
instructing the county auditor to draw a new warrant in favor of the
payee in the same amount as the original warrant, or the governing
board may by resolution authorize the county auditor to draw new
warrants within the limitations prescribed by the resolution without
prior individual order of the governing board, provided the
limitations prescribed by this section have been complied with. Any
such new warrant shall be subject to the same limitations as the
original warrant which it replaces.


85271.  Any warrant drawn on the funds of a district retirement
system and issued to the claimant thereof but not presented for
payment to the county treasurer within two years after it was issued
is void and the proceeds of such warrants shall revert to and become
a part of the contributions of the district and shall be applied to
reduce the cost to the taxpayers of the district maintaining the
retirement system. The county auditor shall each month inform the
county superintendent of schools of warrants which have become void
during the preceding month, and the county superintendent of schools
shall transmit such information to the governing board of the
community college district.



85272.  The county superintendent of schools shall keep a record of
all orders, or warrants which have become void.
