Sec. 110.210. - Duplicates for lost, stolen, destroyed, mutilated or defaced checks; indemnity bond; payment of duplicates.

Whenever it is clearly proved to the satisfaction of the Director of Finance and Administration that any original check of the City is lost, stolen or wholly or partially destroyed, or is so mutilated or defaced as to impair its value to the owner or holder, the Director is authorized to issue to the owner or holder thereof against funds available for the payment of the original check a duplicate showing such information as may be necessary to identify the original check, but no duplicate shall be payable if the original check shall first have been paid. The Director may, before issuance of a duplicate check, require from the owner or holder of the original check an undertaking to indemnify the City, in the form and amount and with the surety or security the Director believes necessary. Duplicates issued under this Section drawn by the Treasurer shall be deemed to be original checks and payable under the same conditions as original checks.
