CHAPTER 85 - PAWNSHOPS AND CRAFTED PRECIOUS METAL DEALERS
SUBCHAPTER A - RULES OF OPERATION FOR PAWNSHOPS
SECTION/RULE §85.414 - Forfeiture of Pledged Goods
Chapter Review Date 06/22/2020

Documentation of the date that pledged goods have been forfeited and have become the property of the pawnshop must be made in the numerical pawn ticket file or in the electronic records. When the option is exercised to take pledged goods as the pawnshop's property, the property is not eligible to be returned to pledged goods status until another disposition of the property is made (e.g., sale, layaway). If goods have not been taken into inventory and documented, the pawn transaction is still considered an open pawn transaction even if the grace period has expired. The pledged goods on any open pawn transaction may be redeemed by payment of the amount financed and pawn service charges accrued to the actual date of redemption.
