Washington Cnty. C.P. Local Rules of Civil Procedure (Updated August 1, 2025) Rule 260
Money Paid Into Court
(a) Where it is appropriate that money be paid into court, the Court on petition of any party
or on its own motion may direct the same to be done. A petition for the payment of money
into court shall set forth the reasons for requesting such action and the exact amount to be
paid. Notice of the presentation of such a petition shall be given in the manner set forth in
these rules.
(b) The Prothonotary shall have custody of all money paid into court and shall deposit such
funds in an escrow account to the credit of the court in a bank or banks in which deposits
are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Upon motion of a person who
appears from the record to be prima facie interested in money paid into court, the Court
may authorize the Prothonotary to invest the fund in such manner and upon such terms as
the court may direct.
(c) Money paid into court may not be withdrawn or paid out except upon written order of
Court.
