Section 543:10 Escheat.
Upon petition by the holder of any fund which is payable and unclaimed, but for less than the time period giving rise to a presumption of abandonment and a requirement to report to the state treasurer under RSA 471-C, the superior court, after notice and hearing, may decree payment thereof to the state treasurer, as presumably abandoned. The state treasurer shall thereafter hold such property subject to those provisions of RSA 471-C which apply to abandoned property delivered to the state treasurer pursuant to report.
