§ 326. Refund upon loss of vehicle
The Commissioner may cancel the registration of a motor vehicle when the owner of
the motor vehicle proves to the Commissioner’s satisfaction that the motor vehicle
has been totally destroyed by fire or, through crash or wear, has become wholly unfit
for use and has been dismantled. After the Commissioner cancels the registration and
the owner returns to the Commissioner either the registration certificate or the number
plate or number plates, or other proof of cancellation to the satisfaction of the
Commissioner, the Commissioner shall certify to the Commissioner of Finance and Management
the fact of the cancellation, giving the name of the owner of the motor vehicle, the
owner’s address, the amount of the registration fee paid, and the date of cancellation.
The Commissioner of Finance and Management shall issue the Commissioner of Finance
and Management’s warrant in favor of the owner for such percent of the registration
fee paid as the unexpired term of the registration bears to the entire registration
period, but in no case shall the Commissioner of Finance and Management retain less
than $5.00 of the fee paid.
