California AB1447 modifies escheat laws for unclaimed property and securities in business associations.

California AB1447 amends the Code of Civil Procedure to adjust the escheat process for unclaimed property and securities in business associations. The Controller must notify owners of unclaimed property if they have not claimed it or corresponded with the holder within three years. The notice must be sent to the owner's last known address and include details about the property and the escheat process. Securities in business associations, such as dividends or distributions, escheat to the state if the owner has been inactive for three years and does not respond to the notice.
