DEFENCE ACT 1860 - SECT 22

Provision for payment into the Supreme Court on failure to deduce a title for three months after compensation ascertained.

22. The said Secretary of State may in any case at or after the expiration of
three months from the time at which the compensation for any lands has been
agreed upon or otherwise ascertained, if the owner thereof have not in the
meantime made out a title thereto to the satisfaction of the said Secretary of
State, pay such compensation, without such addition as aforesaid, [into the
Supreme Court or into [the Supreme Court in Northern Ireland]] in manner
hereinbefore referred to; and such payment shall discharge the said Secretary
of State from all liability in respect of the money so paid:

Provided always, that the Court of Chancery may, upon application for payment
of such money to the party entitled, in case the Court be of opinion that
there was no unreasonable delay in deducing the title, or that a good title
was shown, order all or any costs occasioned by such payment into Court to be
paid by the said Secretary of State.
