10 pursuant to Section 710, the court shall order any payor
11 making payments directly to the clerk to pay the clerk a fee
12 at the rate of $3.00 per month for every month the order is

19 herein provided, except for the initial payment which shall

21 the clerk. The amount of the fee due for the initial period
22 shall be computed from the date the support order first takes
23 effect to the next January 1 or July 1, whichever occurs
24 first.
25 Unless paid in cash, the payment of the fee shall be by a
26 separate instrument from the support payment and shall be
27 made to the order of the clerk.
