Deposit and Withdrawal of Funds in Court

In cases where a party depositing funds with the Court Clerk desires that the funds be invested with a named institution, the order shall so specify but, in the absence of specific directions to the contrary, all registry funds will be invested in a general interest-bearing account or instrument as required by Fed.R.Civ.P. 67. All court orders for the deposit of registry funds in interest-bearing accounts shall contain the following provision: IT IS ORDERED that counsel presenting this order serve a copy thereof on the Court Clerk or the Chief Deputy Clerk personally. Absent this service the Clerk is hereby relieved of any personal liability relative to compliance with this order.
