Deposit of money into registry of court

Official statutory text

With leave of court, the plaintiff may deposit into the registry of the court money which is claimed by the defendants, and which plaintiff admits is due one or more of the defendants.

When sums of money due one or more of the defendants accrue from time to time in the hands of the plaintiff after the institution of the proceeding, with leave of court he may deposit the money as it accrues into the registry of the court.

After the deposit of money into the registry of the court, the plaintiff is relieved of all liability to all of the defendants for the money so deposited.
