O) Additional required information for Stale-dated check/warrant claims:
You must provide a statement and/or other documentation demonstrating that there

Below are relevant Arizona Revised Statutory references regarding issuing duplicate
warrants and Stale-dated warrants or checks. (statutes as of April 2014)
Duplicate Warrant:
11-632. Issuance of duplicate warrant
A. When it appears to the satisfaction of the board or county school superintendent by
affidavit or otherwise that a warrant on the county treasurer has been lost or destroyed
prior to payment and there is no reasonable probability of its being found or presented,
the board may direct the issuance to the owner of a duplicate of the lost or destroyed
warrant. Before issuing the duplicate, however, the board or county school
superintendent shall send a written stop payment notice to the county treasurer, giving
the number, amount and date of the warrant, the payee and the fund on which drawn.
Such duplicate warrant issued under authority of this section shall constitute full and
Revised: April 2014

sufficient authority to the county treasurer for disbursement of public monies in the
amount set forth on the duplicate warrant. The county treasurer shall not pay any
warrant on which a stop payment notice has been made unless the board has released
the stop payment in writing.
B. The board of supervisors shall establish procedures for issuing duplicate warrants
that protect the county and provide the owner with a duplicate warrant within a
reasonable time.
Note regarding STALE-DATED WARRANTS
The Arizona Revised Statutes do not provide for re-issuance of a warrant beyond two
(2) years from the date of issuance. Please see ARS 11-644 below.
Stale-Dated Warrant
11-644. Failure to present county check or warrant for payment
A. A check that is drawn by the county treasurer in the treasurer's official capacity or a
warrant that is drawn on the county general fund and that is not presented for payment
within one year after the date of issuance is void, is deemed to have been paid and is
not subject to section 44-302. A check or warrant that is not presented for payment
within one year has no further force or effect and any monies shall be transferred or
revert to the county general fund or other appropriate fund.
B. At any time within one year after an unpresented check or warrant has been voided
as provided in subsection A of this section, the person in whose favor the check or
warrant was drawn, or the person's personal representative, successors or assignees,
may present a claim for the amount of the check or warrant to the board of supervisors.
If the board finds that the claim is legitimate and that there is good and sufficient reason
for failure to present the original check or warrant, the board may allow the claim and
order it to be paid from the county general fund or other appropriate fund.
