Sec. 7671. Payment of costs and expenses from prize fund

    (a) Payment may not be made from a prize fund except upon the order 
of the court. The court may, at any time, order the payment, from the 
deposit made with the Treasurer or public depositary in the cause, or 
costs or charges accrued and allowed.
    (b) When the cause is finally disposed of, the court shall order the 
Treasurer or public depositary to pay the costs and charges allowed and 
unpaid. If the final decree is for restitution, or if there is no money 
subject to the order of the court in the cause, costs or charges allowed 
by the court and not paid by the claimants shall be paid out of the fund 
for paying the expenses of suits in which the United States is a party 
or is interested.
