for procedural orders.
The court may hear an application under subrule (1) in chambers, in the absence of the parties, on the documents filed.
The court may —
order that any money that has been paid to the payee in error —
be paid into and held in court; or
be returned to the third party debtor; or
be sent to the payer;
and
if the third party debtor has not paid the amount specified in the notice or order mentioned in subrule (1) — order the third party debtor to pay all or part of what was required under the notice or order.
