10 U.S.C. § 8913 — Disposal of public stores by order of commanding officer
submitted 44 years ago by Pub. L. 97-258 to r/title-10-ARMED-FORCES · 57 words · no verdicts yet
When reviewing a disbursing officer's accounts, the Comptroller General must allow for the disposal of public property that the officer got rid of under a commanding officer's order, if there is satisfactory proof the order was given and followed. The commanding officer, not the disbursing officer, is responsible for that disposal.
When the Comptroller General settles the accounts of a disbursing official, the Comptroller General must allow the disposal of public stores that the disbursing official carried out under a commanding officer's order — as long as satisfactory evidence shows the order was actually given and the stores were disposed of the way the order said. The commanding officer* is the one accountable for that disposal, not the disbursing official.
When settling an account of a disbursing official, the Comptroller General shall allow disposal of public stores the disbursing official made under an order of a commanding officer* when presented with satisfactory evidence that the order was made and that the stores were disposed of as the order provided. The commanding officer is accountable for the disposal.
