ORLANDO, Fla. \u2014 The Orange County Clerk of Courts is urging residents, businesses and organizations to check whether they have unclaimed money before the Sept. 1 deadline.<\/p>\n

The Clerk\u2019s Office said its list includes about 9,100 uncashed checks, including vendor payments, refunds, restitution and cash bonds. The checks range in value from 1 cent to $10,000.<\/p>\n

According to the Clerk\u2019s Office, the checks were mailed but never cashed, possibly because the recipient moved without leaving a forwarding address or forgot about the payment.<\/p>\n

Anyone who finds their name on the list has until Sept. 1 to submit a claim. Under Florida law, any unclaimed money after that date will be forfeited and deposited into the Clerk\u2019s Fine and Forfeiture Fund.<\/p>\n

The unclaimed checks list and claim instructions are available at MyOrangeClerk.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
