the court all or any part of such sum or thing. Money paid into
court under this rule shall be deposited in an interest-bearing
account or invested in an interest-bearing instrument approved by

67.02 COURT MAY ORDER DEPOSIT OR SEIZURE OF PROPERTY
When it is admitted by the pleading or examination of a party that
he has in his possession or control any money or other thing capable
of delivery which being the subject of the litigation, is held by
him as trustee for another party, or which belongs or is due to
another party, the court may order the same to be deposited in court
or delivered to such other party, with or without security, subject
to further direction. If such order is disobeyed, the court may
punish the disobedience as a contempt, and may also require the
sheriff or other proper officer to take the money or property and
deposit or deliver it in accordance with the direction given. Money
paid into court under this rule shall be deposited in an
interest-bearing account or invested in an interest-bearing
instrument approved by the court. At the conclusion of the action,
the interest accruing on any such account or instrument shall be
paid to the person to whom the principal amount of the account is
paid.

banks, to the credit of the court in the action or proceeding in
which the money was paid. The money, including earned interest, so
deposited shall be paid only upon the check of the clerk of the
court, annexed to its certified order for the payment, and in favor
of the person to whom the order directs the payment to be made. Any
interest which may have accrued shall also be paid to that same
person.
