those dates. There shall be apportioned and paid to each plaintiff
having a deposit in the fund during the three-month period for which
an apportionment is made an amount directly proportionate to the
total deposits in the fund and the length of time the deposits
remained therein, except that no payment shall be made of any
interest in the amount of five dollars ($5) or less. These amounts
shall be transferred to the General Fund by the Controller. The
Treasurer shall pay out the money deposited by a plaintiff in the
manner and at the times the court or a judge thereof may, by order or
decree, direct. Any residual amount after all required payments have
been made shall be paid to the plaintiff if that amount is more than
five dollars ($5). If the amount is five dollars ($5) or less, it
shall be transferred to the General Fund by the Controller.
