Deposit of Demand Draft in HC - 482 Compromise Quash

Hello Experts, We have agreed settlement with other party on a compromise amount if they agree to 482 compromise quash of 498a/406 in Jaipur HC. Due to trust issues, girls family wants us to deposit the Demand Draft in the HC along with the quash petition and give it to them after the quash order. 1. Can the HC/registrar deposit the demand draft with them at the time of quash petition application? 2. If the quash is not executed in 3 months and Demand Draft expires, can the DD be revalidated again by us or will the girls side need to do the revalidation? 3. If HC does not deposit the DD with them - is there any other way the compromise amount can be deposited to a neutral third party who can give to girl side on quash only ? E.g. I have heard of Escrow accounts ? Do courts accept escrow accounts for payments between the litigant parties ? 4. Any other suggestions experts ?
