§ 8-4-1-17 — Eminent domain; conflicting claimants to compensation; judicial determination

If there are adverse or conflicting claimants to
the money, or any part of it, to be paid as compensation for the real
estate taken, the court may direct the money to be paid into the said
court by the company, or take security for the same until it can
determine who is entitled to the same, and shall direct to whom the
same shall be paid, and may, in its discretion, order a reference, to
ascertain the facts on which such determination and order are to be
made.
