All moneys arising from fines and bond forfeitures shall, at each term of the court, be distributed by the clerk of the court under order of the court to such persons and according to the priorities prescribed by law; and, upon failure to do so, the clerk shall be subject to a rule at the instance of any party aggrieved. (Ga. L. 1878-79, p. 189, § 2; Code 1882, § 4655b; Penal Code 1895, § 1090; Penal Code 1910, § 1117; Code 1933, § 27-2903; Ga. L. 1984, p. 842, § 3; Ga. L. 1985, p. 149, § 15; Ga.
