Fla. Stat. 298.60
Unpaid warrants issued by district to draw interest

Any warrant issued under this chapter that is not paid when presented to the treasurer of the district because of lack of funds in the treasury, such fact shall be endorsed on the back of such warrant; and such warrant shall draw interest thereafter at the rate of 6 percent per annum, until such time as there is money on hand to pay the amount of such warrant and the interest then accumulated; but no interest shall be allowed on warrants after notice to the holder or holders thereof that sufficient funds are in the treasury to pay said endorsed warrants and interest.
