- Title 8: Criminal Procedure
- Chapter 40: Release
Any deposit required or authorized as a condition of release may be made by the person released or by any other person. A receipt shall be issued in the name of the depositor. If the money remains on deposit at the time of a judgment for the payment of a fine, the clerk shall, under the direction of the court, if the defendant be the depositor, apply the money in satisfaction thereof, and after satisfying the fine, shall refund the surplus, if any, to the defendant. If the person to whom the receipt for the deposit was issued was not the defendant, the deposit shall be returned to him at any time after the court has ordered such return and upon the depositor's submission of his receipt.
