In Florida, money was paid to registry of court for deceased spouse (about $13k); how can surviving spouse obtain the funds?

Jurisdiction
Florida
In a Florida civil case, funds were paid by a defendant into the registry of the court to pay a claim in a civil case to a person who is now deceased (3 years ago), and the amount is about $13,000. Surviving spouse wants to have the circuit court clerk pay out the funds to him, as widower. There is no Estate and the deceased had no real estate or money.
