The following is an announcement from the office of California State Assemblyman Steve Fox (D-Palmdale):

California’s Unclaimed Property Law requires “holders” such as corporations, business associations, financial institutions, and insurance companies to annually report and deliver property to the State Controller’s Office after there has been no customer contact for three years. Often the owner forgets that the account exists, moves and does not leave a forwarding address, or the forwarding order expires. In some cases, the owner dies and the heirs have no knowledge of the property.
I encourage you to take advantage by visiting my website or by calling the State Controller’s office at 800-992-4647. If there are any other ways that I can be of assistance to you, please do not hesitate to contact my district office at 661-267-7636.
