IN AND FOR POLK COUNTY, FLORIDA
ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 5-42.0
WHEREAS, the Court in some cases
orders family support payments to be paid through the Clerk of the Court, Domestic
Relations Department, and
WHEREAS, it is necessary to provide
for administrative procedures to accommodate the collection and disbursement of these
funds,
It is therefore, ORDERED that:
The Clerk of the Court shall have
the authority to recalculate any installment payments ordered to be paid through the
Domestic Relations Support Depository so as to make those payments consistent with the pay
periods of the employer of the obligor.
A payor (employer) deducting support
from an obligor (employee) pursuant to an Income Deduction Order shall, in addition the
support amount, deduct from the obligors income a depository fee of 4% of the

$5.25.
This is an administrative procedure
only and shall not allow the Clerk to change the total amount of support ordered.
DONE and ORDERED on the 12th
