Disposition of Sale Proceeds

The proceeds, if any, from the sale of estrays shall be paid into the General Fund. A private person claiming a lien against the estray shall file written proof of such amount of lien, under oath, with the Director. If the Director shall be satisfied of the validity of the amount claimed, he shall authorize payment thereof from any proceeds of the sale of the estray on which the lien is claimed, after deducting charged for care and keep, impounding, and costs of sale allowed by this Article.
