14-21-203. Approval of claims by county judge.

(a) After a quorum court has approved a proper ordinance establishing a drug enforcement fund, set the maximum amount of the fund, and appropriated funds for the fund, the county judge may approve a county claim for the initial establishment of the drug enforcement fund.

(b) If adequate appropriations and funds are available, the drug enforcement fund may be replenished upon presentation and approval of a claim as provided in the normal county disbursement procedures. The total amount of funds held in the drug enforcement fund bank account and cash funds held by the sheriff's office shall not exceed the maximum amount established by the quorum court.
