Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
If the sender of a payment order that is erroneously executed as stated in section 4-1303 receives
notification from the receiving bank that the order was executed or that the sender's account was debited
with respect to the order, the sender has a duty to exercise ordinary care to determine, on the basis of
information available to the sender, that the order was erroneously executed and to notify the bank of
the relevant facts within a reasonable time not exceeding 90 days after the notification from the bank
was received by the sender. If the sender fails to perform that duty, the bank is not obliged to pay
interest on any amount refundable to the sender under section 4-1402, subsection (4) for the period
before the bank learns of the execution error. The bank is not entitled to any recovery from the sender
because the sender failed to perform the duty stated in this section. [PL 1991, c. 812, §2 (NEW).]
