This document provides the procedures for requesting to withdraw funds of a minor or a person with a disability deposited into a blocked account. All petitions will be filed in the location specified by the Zip Code List (SDSC Form #ADM-254) unless there is an underlying civil action assigned to an independent calendar judge who is still in that assignment, in which case the petition will be filed at that location in the existing civil case.

A petition is NOT required if a minor has reached the age of majority (age 18) and the Order to Deposit Funds in Blocked Account (JC Form #MC-355) included the following language, “When the minor reaches the age of 18 years, the depository, without further order of this court, is authorized and directed to pay by check or draft directly to the former minor all funds, including interest deposited under this order.” • To withdraw funds from a blocked account, complete and submit the following: o Petition for Withdrawal of Funds from Blocked Account (JC Form #MC-357) (Petition). o Order for Withdrawal of Funds from Blocked Account (JC Form #MC-358) (Order). o Filing fee or Request to Waive Court Fees (see Fee Waiver Packet [SDSC PKT-010]).

Petitions submitted before the minor reaches majority must also include the following supporting documentation: o Medical or Dental Emergencies: All bills and proof of payment, less any insurance reimbursement. o Educational Expenditures: Proof of acceptance to school and proof of tuition. o Income Tax Related Expenses Directly Related to Minor’s Care: Quarterly estimated tax payments (Federal and State) substantiated by a statement from an accountant or tax preparer. o Transportation (Purchase of Vehicle) Directly Related to Minor’s Care: Copy of contract to purchase, a valid driver’s license, and proof of insurance coverage for one year.
