"pursuant or "pursuant to"

Is the word "to" necessary after the word "pursuant" in a sentence?

For example, is the following sentence improper?

"The deposit shall be released at the closing pursuant paragraph 14."

Is it necessary to state "...pursuant to paragraph 14."

Thanks,

Dan

Yes, the "to" is necessary.
(Otherwise, it sounds like an adjective. What is a pursuant paragraph?)

It works like, "This is being done according to rule fourteen."
