RULE 67. Deposit in Court

Except as otherwise provided in Rule 68(b), in an action in which any part of the relief sought is a judgment for a sum of money or the disposition of a sum of money or the disposition of any other thing capable of delivery, a party, upon notice to every other party and by leave of court, may deposit with the court all or any part of such sum or thing, whether or not that party claims all or any part of the sum or thing. The party making the deposit shall serve the order permitting deposit on the clerk of the court. Money paid into court under this rule shall be deposited and withdrawn in accordance with applicable statutes and with orders of the court entered in the action. The fund shall be deposited in a federally insured interest-bearing account or invested in an interest-bearing instrument approved by the court.
