Right to rely upon written instructions; conflicting

demands upon escrow agent; right to interplead; custody of documents; attorney's fees authorized. If two or more parties to an escrow make conflicting demands upon the escrow agent regarding the performance of its duties, then the escrow agent may, at its election, hold any money or documents which are the subject of the conflicting demands until it receives mutual instructions resolving the conflict in writing and signed by all parties to the escrow, or until a civil action has been finally concluded in a court of competent jurisdiction determining the rights of all parties to the escrow. In any civil action commenced to resolve the conflicting demands of the parties to the escrow, the escrow agent may recover a reasonable amount as attorney's fees and costs.
