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.
