<p class="MsoNormal">Listmates. I have been involved with several interpleader actions but always as the party interpleading the funds and never representing the parties to the contract. We have a situation where funds were deposited into the court but one
party has never appeared and is incommunicado. We have a procedural conundrum. Being “ co defendants” we can’t do a default. Would a show cause why we should not get the funds be appropriate? Is there any motion we can do ex parte as serving the party
may be a challenge? New territory for us. Thanks in advance <o:p></o:p></p>
