§ 4405. Death or incapacity of customer
(a) Authority of bank unaffected in absence of knowledge.--The authority of a payor or collecting bank to accept, pay or collect an item or to account for proceeds of its collection, if otherwise effective, is not rendered ineffective by incapacity of a customer of either bank existing at the time the item is issued or its collection is undertaken if the bank does not know of an adjudication of incapacity. Neither death nor incapacity of a customer revokes the authority to accept, pay, collect or account until the bank knows of the fact of death or of an adjudication of incapacity and has reasonable opportunity to act on it.
