Miss. Code § 19-13-43
Warrants shall be drawn by the clerk, under his seal of office, in favor of the claimants, on all demands, claims and accounts allowed by the board, in the order of their allowance, against the several funds in the county depository from which such allowed claims must be paid. The board of supervisors of any county may, in its discretion, adopt the use of a standard check signing machine to be used in lieu of the manual signing of warrants by the clerk, under such terms and conditions as the board shall deem meet and proper for the protection of the interest of the county. No warrant shall be signed, removed from the warrant book, nor delivered by the clerk until there is sufficient money in the fund upon which it is drawn to pay the same and all prior unpaid warrants drawn upon that fund, whether delivered or not. The owner of any claim so allowed may, either before or after allowance, transfer the same by assignment, and the holder of such assignment shall be entitled to receive the warrant therefor at the proper time by presenting such assignment to the clerk at any time before delivery of such warrant to the original claimant.
