Mississippi Code
Article 8 - Local Government Debt Collection Setoff Act
§ 27-7-815. Priority of multiple claims

When there are multiple claims by two (2) or more member organizations submitting debts on behalf of local governments, the claims have priority based on the date each member organization filed the claim with the department. When there are multiple claims among local governments whose debts are submitted by the same member organization, the claims have priority based on the date each local government requested the member organization to submit the debts on its behalf. A claim submitted under Sections 27-7-501 through 27-7-519 shall have priority over a claim submitted under this article.
