GOVERNMENT CODE

SECTION 27080-27082

27080. Any officer required to pay into the county treasury taxes,
fees, or other money collected by him may pay the money to the
treasurer daily without making an account of the sources from which
it was collected. The treasurer and auditor shall credit the officer
with the amount paid in without apportioning it to any specific fund.
The officer shall also make regular settlements and accounts of his
collections monthly or otherwise as required by law and shall be
credited with all amounts paid to the treasurer and not included in
his previous settlements as so much cash.

27080.1. Where the county treasurer has entered into a contract for
the deposit of moneys with a depository pursuant to Section 53682,
the county treasurer may authorize any county officer or judicial
district, required to deposit into the county treasury all money
collected by him or her or the district, to deposit that money
directly into the depository with whom the county treasurer has
entered into the contract. All deposits made under authority granted
by the treasurer pursuant to this section shall be made in the form
as required by the treasurer, and receipts for those deposits shall
be given in accordance with Section 27009.

27081. The clerk of the court may deposit in the county treasury
any money deposited as jury fees or as a portion of the
naturalization fees required by law to be paid to the United States.
The treasurer shall accept and keep separate accounts of such
deposits. The money may be withdrawn at any time by the clerk of the
court on the clerk's written order. For the safekeeping of the money
the treasurer is liable on the treasurer's official bond.

27082. Upon receiving from the coroner money found on a dead body,
the treasurer shall place it to the credit of the county. The money
shall be credited to a separate trust fund or trust account. If the
legal representatives of the decedent demand the money in the
treasury belonging to the decedent within six years, the treasurer
shall pay it to them, after deducting the fees and expenses of the
coroner and of the county in relation to the matter, or the money may
be paid at any time thereafter upon the order of the board of
supervisors.
