[/INST] The specific laws regarding found money vary depending on the country and jurisdiction. In general, if you find money in a public place, the legal requirement is to report the found money to the authorities and make a reasonable effort to find the rightful owner. If the owner cannot be found, then the money may be turned over to the authorities for safekeeping or kept by the finder.
