The St. Lucie County clerk's office said Wednesday there is more than $125,000 waiting to be claimed by residents and companies.
According to Clerk Joe Smith, there is an extensive list includes restitution payments, refund overpayments, cash or appeals bonds, court registry funds and juror payments.

Instructions on how to claim the funds are available on the website. The deadline to collect the funds is 5 p.m. Sept. 1.
“There are more than 700 cases with outstanding unclaimed monies,” Smith said in a news release. “Most cases are around $100, but the largest amount owed is $28,988.”
Funds dating back to 2007 are included in this court-related unclaimed funds list. In the spring, the clerk’s office said it will issue a list of unclaimed funds for county-related activities.
