Where the amount determined by a board, as provided in Section 415, as the value of lost, damaged, or destroyed property is charged to a person, it shall be deducted from any pay or allowance due or to become due to him or her from the state. Money due to the state for any reason, with or without the action of a board, from a member of the active militia, a member of the unorganized militia when called for active duty, or any civilian employee of the Office of the Adjutant General shall be deducted or withheld from any money due or to become due that member or civilian employee from the state, including any pay and allowances payable pursuant to Article 1 (commencing with Section 320) of Chapter 5 of Part 1 of Division 2. Where the amount is charged to a command, it shall be deducted one-half in successive calendar years from any allowance or money due or to become due to it from the state, except that on the disbandment of a command any indebtedness then existing and any indebtedness as may be charged to it upon a final settlement of property accounts shall, as soon as determined, be paid out of its military funds or unexpended appropriations.
An action may be maintained in the name of the people of the state in any court of competent jurisdiction by the Attorney General, upon request of the Adjutant General, to recover from a member of the active militia, a member of the unorganized militia when called for active duty, or any civilian employee of the Office of the Adjutant General or his sureties any indebtedness to the state remaining unpaid upon final determination of the indebtedness.
