Question
I have a store in Bnei Brak, and in the store, there is a notice regarding lost items that are left in the store, stating that after two weeks, the lost item is considered ownerless. What is the actual ruling? Do I need to keep the lost item until the coming of the Messiah, or after some time, am I allowed to discard or pass it on?
Answer
Shalom and blessings
The notice is effective.
You may use or discard the item after two weeks.
