MOTION

Plaintiff Tower Insurance Company of New York (“Plaintiff”) moves the court for 

an order to withdraw the sum of $12,170.42 from the $40,000 Bond Proceeds that 

Plaintiff deposited into the Court’s registry fund. 

MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF MOTION

On or about December 15, 2014, this Court entered an Order to Deposit Funds 

(Docket # 35). In conformance with that Order, Plaintiff deposited the sum of $40,000 

into the Court’s registry. 

On November 20, 2014, this Court entered an Order for Interpleader Discharging 

Plaintiff from Further Liability, and for an Award of Plaintiff’s Costs and Attorney Fees. 

(Docket # 32). In that order, the Court ruled that “Tower shall be allowed to recover 

from the Bond Proceeds the sum of $12,170.42 ... The clerk of the court is hereby 

directed to disburse from the registry of the court, the sums awarded to Tower.” In 

conformance with that order, Plaintiff now files this Motion to Withdraw Funds from the 

Court’s registry, pursuant to Local Rule 67-3. 

At this time, Plaintiff does not request any additional withdrawals from the 

$40,000 Bond Proceeds. With regard to the remainder of the funds deposited into the 

Court’s registry, Plaintiff requests that the Court ascertain who of the Claimants on the 

Bond have established valid claims against the Bond (if any) and determine what share
