Supreme Court Rules 2000

Before relief by way of interpleader may be granted, the applicant is to satisfy the Court or a judge by affidavit or otherwise – that the applicant does not claim an interest in the subject matter in dispute, other than for charges or costs; and that the applicant is not colluding with any claimant; and that the applicant is willing to pay or transfer the subject matter into Court or to dispose of it as the Court or a judge may direct.

Subrule (1)(c) does not apply where the Sheriff – has seized real or personal property; and has withdrawn from possession in consequence of the execution creditor admitting the claim of the claimant under rule 224(4).
