Rule 8.1. Payment of certain fees and costs through office of the court clerk

    No judicial order, judgment or decree shall direct the payment of attorney fees, child support, alimony, temporary support or any similar type payment through the office of the Court Clerk, except in the case of necessity duly shown by evidence presented to the court. All such payments when ordered to be paid through the office of the court clerk, shall be made only by money order, government check or cashier's check payable to the payee to receive such payment. The court clerk shall make an entry of such payment on the appearance docket, then transmit the money order, government check or cashier's check to the payee in accordance with 12 O.S.1981 § 1290. Such payments shall not be subject to the poundage fee. This rule shall be effective for all orders issued after March 13, 1981, and all prior orders unless such prior orders expressly provide otherwise.
