Regulation 27

Where money is standing to the credit of the enforcement respondent in Court, the enforcement applicant is not entitled to an enforcement order in respect of that money but may apply to the Court by originating application or summons for an order that the money or so much of the money as is sufficient to satisfy the maintenance order sought to be enforced and the costs of the application be paid to the enforcement applicant.

Despite Rule 3(3) and subject to paragraphs (3) to (6), the provisions of these Rules apply to an originating application or summons issued under this Rule.

On issuing an originating application or a summons under this Rule, the enforcement applicant must produce the originating application or summons (as the case may be) at the office of the Accountant‑General and leave a copy at that office, and the money to which the application relates must not be paid out of Court until after the determination of the application.

If the application is dismissed, the enforcement applicant must give notice of that fact to the Accountant‑General.

Unless the Court otherwise directs, the originating application or summons must be served on the enforcement respondent at least 7 days before the day named in the originating application or summons (as the case may be) for the hearing of the application.

The Court hearing an application under this Rule may make any order with respect to the money that the Court thinks fit.
