“Interpleader is a procedure whereby a person holding money or property to which conflicting claims are being made by others, can join the adverse claimants and force them to litigate their claims among themselves. (For example, an escrowholder who receives conflicting demands from the parties to the escrow regarding the funds or documents he or she holds.)”
“Interpleader is proper whenever ‘double or multiple claims are made … by two or more persons … such that they may [expose the person against whom the claims are asserted] to double or multiple liability.'”
