[Code of Federal Regulations] [Title 32, Volume 5, Parts 700 to 799] [Revised as of July 1, 1998] From the U.S. Government Printing Office via GPO Access [CITE: 32CFR726.9] [Page 271] TITLE 32--NATIONAL DEFENSE CHAPTER VI--DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY PART 726--PAYMENTS OF AMOUNTS DUE MENTALLY INCOMPETENT MEMBERS OF THE NAVAL SERVICE--Table of Contents Sec. 726.9 Reports and supervision of trustees. (a) Accounting reports. The trustee designated under this chapter will submit accounting reports annually or at such other times as the Judge Advocate General or his designee directs. The Judge Advocate General will provide forms to be used by trustees for the required accounting report. The report will account for all funds received from the Navy or Marine Corps on behalf of the member. When payments to a trustee are terminated for any reason, the trustee will submit a final accounting report to the Judge Advocate General. Upon approval of the final accounting report, the trustee and the surety will be discharged from liability. (b) Failure to submit a report and default. If an accounting report is not received by the date designated by the Judge Advocate General or his designee, or an accounting is unsatisfactory, the Judge Advocate General or his designee will notify the trustee in writing. If a satisfactory accounting is not received by the Judge Advocate General within the time specified, the trustee will be declared in default of the trustee agreement and will become liable for all unaccounted trustee funds. If a trustee is declared in default of the trustee agreement, the appropriate finance center will be directed to terminate payments to the trustee and, if necessary, a successor trustee may be appointed. The trustee and surety will be notified in writing by the Judge Advocate General or his designee of the declaration of default. The notification will state the reasons for default, the amount of indebtedness to the Government, and will demand payment for the full amount of indebtedness. If payment in full is not received by the Judge Advocate General within an appropriate period of time from notification of default, the account may be forwarded to the Department of Justice for recovery of funds through appropriate civil action.
