Sec. 20-5-20. Withdrawal by persons having an interest. At any time after the plaintiff has taken possession of the property pursuant to the order of taking, if an appeal has not been and will not be taken from the court's order described in subsection (b) of Section 20-5-10 of this Act, or if such an appeal has been taken and has been determined in favor of the plaintiff, any party interested in the property may apply to the court for authority to withdraw, for his or her own use, his or her share (or any part thereof) of the amount preliminarily found by the court to be just compensation and deposited by the plaintiff, in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) of Section 20-5-15 of this Act, as that share is determined by the court. The court shall then fix a date for a hearing on the application for authority to withdraw and shall require due notice of the application to be given to each party whose interests would be affected by the withdrawal. After the hearing, the court may authorize the withdrawal requested, or any part thereof as is proper, but upon the condition that the party making the withdrawal shall refund to the clerk of the court, upon the entry of a proper court order, any portion of the amount withdrawn that exceeds the amount finally ascertained in the proceeding to be just compensation (or damages, costs, expenses, or attorney fees) owing to that party.
