§ 4246. Maintenance
Law enforcement agencies seizing property under this subchapter shall ensure that
the property is properly maintained. Equipment and conveyances seized shall be removed
to an appropriate place for storage. Any monies, negotiable instruments, or securities
seized shall if practicable be deposited in an interest-bearing account pending final
disposition by the court unless the seizing agency determines the properties to be
of an evidentiary nature and provides for their security in another manner. Any such
deposit in an interest-bearing account shall only be accomplished pursuant to a court
order directing the same, and the court shall have jurisdiction to enter such order
or any other order directing interim disposition of the properties pending final disposition
by the court. (Added 1985, No. 174 (Adj. Sess.), § 2.)
