“In the past few years, we have been working through the worst financial crisis we have known since the Great Depression.
...We hear every day from people who lament the choices they made, often expressing anguished regret that
they did not know more about the risks involved in financial decisions.”
Financial Literacy and Education Summit held in Chicago, April, 2013

n response to the challenge facing community banks to
address this crucial need, Legence Bank, Eldorado initiated
its own financial-literacy program, Legence Bank University
(LBU). The program:
• Was developed by Legence financial-service professionals
who understand personal finance beyond mere theory, and
who can effectively share the characteristics of positive
money-management skills in real life;
• Is motivating, fun, and accessible to parents,
teachers, and students;
• Is free to schools; and
• Features a unique, identifiable mascot, Lucky the Star.
LBU is an educational program to educate, inform, and encourage
financial knowledge in the communities Legence Bank serves.
LBU programs reach children in kindergarten through high school,

plus continuing education for adults. Legence Bank’s website,
www.legencebank.com, features a special LBU section that takes
the consumer to the area appropriate for their station in life.

Worksheets, games and activities are provided such as
word search, maze, coloring sheets and “Fun Facts about
Money.” The emphasis is on the three basic areas of money
management: spend, save and share. Provisions are made for
online privacy and security for children.
Young Adults
Videos are provided on “How To Save Money” and “How
Mobile Banking Works.” Articles include “Frequently Asked
Banking Questions for Teens and Grads,” “Financial Terms

Continuing Education
Videos include “How To Balance Your Checkbook” and

The first year of LBU, 200 students were reached. The following
year, the number was increased to 1,200. Some teachers’
comments follow.
“The presentation that the employees of Legence Bank give to
our high-school seniors has a large impact on their financial
futures. The demo that is shown to the class on how easy it
is to take care of their finances through the bank’s website
is a valuable lesson. Establishing communication between
a bank and a young adult removes many barriers that might
exist because of fear of the unkown or perhaps prior examples
set by family members. Many students have visited Legence
Bank after hearing the presentation in class, and several have
opened new accounts.”

an Honorable Mention for its Pink Ribbon Debit Card Program
which benefits the fight against breast cancer.
“As a junior-high math teacher, it is my honor to recognize
Legence Bank for its willingness to come and educate my
eighth-grade math students about financial stewardship.
Providing a curriculum designed to teach students how
to balance a checkbook, write checks, properly use a debit
card, utilize online banking options, etc. serves as a valuable
foundation for teaching life-application skills related to
banking. This prepares students for the advanced skills to be
taught in high school.”
Jeffrey Herrmann, Gallatin County School
“Your discussion and activities were on their knowledge level
and very interesting to them. I personally feel that it is very
important for students to learn how to save money. You did a
great job making a fun lesson with such an important topic.”

Four Ways to
Mitigate Risk in Banking
Mary Ellen Biery, Research Specialist, Sageworks, Raleigh, NC
B
ankers in today’s environment face a number of
challenges, including deciphering and complying
with ongoing regulatory changes, developing and
conducting adequate stress-testing methods and justifying
or defending changes in their allowance reserves.
But bankers can do many things to mitigate risk in those
areas, according to several industry experts participating in
the Second Annual Sageworks Risk Management Summit
last month. Here are four pieces of advice:
1. Document the rationale for loan upgrades.
Linda Keith CPA, whose firm trains business lenders in
credit analysis, says bankers should be careful to document
the thinking behind their judgment that a loan should
be upgraded for purposes of the allowance for loan and
lease losses (ALLL). “It’s important to eliminate regulator
guesswork,” she says. It’s also important, she says, for
financial institutions to verify that guidelines for analyzing
a potential upgrade are “clear, clearly communicated to, and
consistently followed.” Keith helped lead a presentation on
deciding and defending upgraded loans for the ALLL at the
December 5-6 summit.
2. Don’t be afraid to uncover vulnerabilities.
RMPI Consulting partner Jay Gallo, who discussed
“Integrating Risk Appetite, Stress Testing and Capital
Planning,” says stress testing is positive in that it enables
financial institutions to gauge their potential vulnerability
to exceptional but plausible adverse events. “Stress testing
should assess and quantify your institution’s vulnerabilities
under multiple unfavorable scenarios,” he says. “Once the
potential downside is understood, you can take steps to
reduce or mitigate those risks, or you can ensure you have
sufficient capital to manage those risks.”
institutions looking to prepare and manage stress-test forecasts
need to know three key things:
• The institution’s portfolio
• The scenarios and their impact on the bank’s
capital and liquidity
• The forecasts including what they show and why.
Gregory and Keever’s presentation also outlined three lines of
defense all institutions need for stress-test production.
4. Set deadlines. “To make the year-end ALLL as efficient
as possible, it is best to get as much work done as possible prior
to year end,” says Mike Lubansky, director of consulting services
at Sageworks. To do that, financial institutions should set hard
deadlines for:
• Risk-rating changes
• Charge-offs
• Updating the core system to reflect the risk-rating changes
• Determining the loans that need to be reviewed for
impairment (FAS 114/ ASC 310) and
• Updating the data on the impairment analyses
(appraisal values and selling costs, or cash flows).
Industry experts also participated in a panel discussion on
year-end ALLL calculations at the Summit. n

in Community Banking Conference at the Crowne
Plaza in Springfield. Participants from all areas of
banking throughout Illinois benefitted from expert speakers,
pertinent and informative topics, peer networking and a miniexpo. This one-day conference was developed by a committee of
female community-bank professionals who shaped the agenda
to address top concerns facing women professionals, as well as
pertinent banking issues for community banks. This conference
helped participants restore their passion for work and home
and find a renewed sense of purpose. Attendees also learned
how to set themselves apart from the competition, motivate
themselves to deal with stress and change, form stronger teams,
embrace change, inspire accountability and more! An address
from CBAI Chairman Bill Wubben also highlighted the day.
The conference was kicked off by Kelly Swanson, High
Point, NC, with her session entitled “Who Hijacked My Fairy
Tale,” followed by an interactive session with Elaine Hand of
Innerview, Inc., entitled “Change Is Good – You Go First.”
Theresa Lovekamp, Midland Community Bank,
Kincaid, agreed, saying “Kelly Swanson was entertaining and
kept my attention. Elaine Hand was thought-provoking, and I
enjoyed her presentation. I really enjoyed myself and hope to be
able to attend next year!”
Closing out the morning’s education was a Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau (CFPB) Update with Robin Loftus, who
served as the chair of the CFPB’s Community Bank Advisory
Council during 2012 and 2013 and is a Past Chairman of CBAI.
After a networking lunch where participants were seated by
area of banking, CBAI Chairman Bill Wubben, president
of Apple River State Bank, provided an update on the
association, the future of community banking, and opportunities
to become more involved with CBAI.
Participants then heard from Julia Johnson of Wipfli LLP
on “Accountability and Emotional Intelligence.” Her program
explored the concepts and skills associated with emotional
intelligence, influence, and accountability and examined ways
to increase staff accountability.
“Kelly was wonderful! Very engaging!” said Jodi Banker, Security
Bank, s.b., Springfield. “I could have listened to her all day!”

“Julia is a very good speaker,” said Amy Logsdon, National
Bank of Petersburg. “She provided very interesting and
intelligent information.”
Closing out the conference was a session called, “Stand Up and
Stick Out in a Crowded Market – Because Nobody Notices
Normal,” with Swanson. A mini-exposition featuring the latest
in products and services designed for community banks also
highlighted the day.
“I loved Kelly Swanson – she was very inspirational!” said Joan
Honeycutt, Farmers State Bank of Danforth. “This was one
program where I looked forward to the last speaker of the day
instead of thinking of reasons to leave early.”
An evening social activity was also offered the night before the
conference which included dinner, drinks and dessert at the
Rosewood Dining Room at the Crowne Plaza. The well-received
event provided participants with opportunities to network with
female community bankers from across the state.

Interest Rate Risk:
A Priority for 2014
Jeffrey F. Caughron, Associate Partner, The Baker Group LP, Oklahoma City, OK
The Banking Environment:
As we move into a new year, the U.S. economy continues
to plod along at a slow and steady pace. Things are getting
better, but we’re still far from where we were before the
“Great Recession” began. Meanwhile, the banking landscape
has improved markedly as earnings clocked 16 consecutive
quarters of year-over-year increase. Returns-on-assets remain
below pre-recession levels, but they’re higher than a year ago
and comfortably above one percent. Much of the improved
performance comes from healthier asset quality. Loan losses
have declined to levels not seen since 2007, and provisions
have fallen nearly forty percent. All of this is good news, but
make no mistake; banks face a multitude of challenges ahead.
Spotlight on Interest Rate Risk:
Not the least of these challenges is that of potential interest
rate risk (IRR). Regulatory agencies have once again elevated
IRR as a focal point for examiners, as evidence suggests
that many financial institutions are taking on higher levels
of interest rate risk. Balance sheets have changed noticeably
in recent years as loan demand has been weak and shortterm rates have hugged historic lows. This could leave them
significantly exposed to a sustained increase in interest rates.
In October, the FDIC released an FIL on Sensitivity to
Market Risk. Simultaneously, the OCC conducted a webinar
to address the IRR issues they thought most important. There
20

is a consensus among regulators that the essential risk for
banks stems from long-term (or high-duration) assets funded
by non-maturity deposits that have surged into bank balance
sheets in the wake of the Great Recession. The influx of
“surge deposits” has regulators concerned about the potential
for fast rising interest expense from rate sensitive liabilities.
At the same time, asset values could come under greater
pressure than in past rate cycles because effective durations
are relatively high. The price risk of some investment
portfolios has increased significantly in the past few years due
to lengthened maturities, options risk, and declining yields.
Management Tools:
The regulatory concerns should cause bank managers to
ponder several questions about the reporting tools that they
have at their disposal:
1.Do we have reports that project securities depreciation
relative to capital in a rising rate environment?
2.Does our IRR model shock the fair value of regulatory and
risk-based capital ratios as well simple equity capital?
3.Do we have a way to model faster re-pricing liabilities
relative to earning assets?
4.Are “floors” on loans modeled properly in our IRR system?
5.Do we have reports that show how our balance-sheet
liquidity is affected by rising interest rates?
6.What if we just want to look at securities cash flow?
Banknotes
Risk-management decision-making depends on thorough and
meaningful data in a useable report format. The five questions
above are good ones to consider when assessing the adequacy
of an IRR reporting system.
reviews should ensure that floors on loans are being modeled
properly. The dynamics of balance-sheet cash flows should be
reported and reviewed, and investment cash-flow projections
tracked for different rate environments.
Risk, Capital, and Stress Tests:
It makes good sense to measure and monitor the relationship
between unrealized losses and capital. And this extends to
various measures of capital itself. For example, if we apply
the mark-to-mark adjustment for securities to risk-based
capital measures, we can more closely capture a total picture
of the bank’s relative risk. All else being equal, a bank that
makes relatively few loans can sometimes justify a higher
level of interest rate risk than a bank with a high loan/deposit
ratio. Similarly, well-capitalized banks with pristine asset
quality can tolerate more interest rate risk than those with
high “Texas Ratios.”
Banks have again been given a “heads up” from examiners on
interest rate risk. With proper reporting tools, good policies, and
sound processes, the regulatory challenge can be met and the
potential risks managed for a smooth and profitable 2014. n
Institutions should run stress tests on assumptions for nonmaturity deposits in IRR models to identify exposure to rising
rates and higher interest expense. Back tests and assumptions

BANKERS’ PRIVATE CLOUD
CLOUD-BASED I.T. SERVICES FOR COMMUNITY BANKS
Charles Cheatham, SVP & General Counsel, BankOnIT, Oklahoma City, OK
BankOnIT has created a unique cloud-based I.T. solution for
community banks: the Bankers Private Cloud™. This service
combines security and other unique characteristics of a private
cloud with the capabilities and efficiencies of a public cloud.
Two types of cloud computing are generally available—public
and private. A public cloud is designed for the general public.
Data is stored remotely and accessed through the Internet
with a username and password. The public cloud provides
immense economies of scale because costs can be spread
over a large numbers of users. However, banks have certain
requirements—such as privacy laws, internal controls,
regulatory oversight, disaster recovery and location where
data is stored—that make the public cloud unacceptable.
A private cloud usually involves only one company. It
provides more security than a public cloud, and permits
unique applications and controls that serve the entity’s needs. The top ten largest banks in the U.S. use the private cloud
approach to provide specialized capabilities throughout
their vast branching networks. But a community bank lacks
necessary scale to create and maintain its own private cloud
with features like these megabanks enjoy. BankOnIT solved
this problem by creating a private cloud that offers banks the
efficiencies and capabilities gained from use of a public cloud,
with the security and unique features of a private cloud.
“BankOnIT understands the financial industry’s requirements—
security, reliability, scalability and regulatory compliance—
and brings them together in one complete solution for a
bank’s I.T. network,” said Robert Mendez, EVP of BankOnIT.
Mendez, a former banker who was one of the firm’s first
clients, added, “The staff at BankOnIT includes not only
Banknotes
technical experts, but also former bankers and a banking
attorney, to help keep bankers competitive in today’s rapidly
changing technical and regulatory environment.”
Mendez noted, “We continue to earn the business of bankers
across the country because we understand the unique needs
of the banking industry. We specially designed the Bankers
Private Cloud™ to meet those needs. Bankers have enough
to worry about. They don’t need to struggle with changing
technology and the resulting regulatory issues. We make
it easier for bankers to focus on running their banks and
spending more time with their customers.”
In a recent speech about cyberattacks on banks, Thomas
Curry, U.S. Comptroller of the Currency, stated, “How does
an institution know whether its defenses are sufficient?...
The fact is that cyberattackers need only limited resources
to trigger significant costs for these institutions.” He
emphasized, “[W]e’re devoting more resources to
cybersecurity—at all of our institutions, but especially at
community banks and thrifts.” n

So, You’re Thinking about
Brokering
Mortgage Loans
Tim Tedrick, CRCM, CRP, Partner, WIPFLi, Sterling, IL
M
any financial institutions have already become
brokers of mortgage loans rather than or in
addition to being direct lenders. Some financial
institutions might be considering a change to a broker model
in light of the mortgage changes coming in January 2014.
There are different methods and workflows for brokering
loans. A financial institution can be a “pure” broker by
limiting its involvement to obtaining applications, issuing
early disclosures, and funneling the applications to a
creditor/lender/investor that underwrites the loans, prepares
all the closing documents, and closes the loans in the name
of the investor with the investor’s money. Alternatively, the
application is sent to the investor that makes the credit
decision, but the loan closes in the financial institution’s
name with the financial institution’s money, and the loan is
sold to the investor a few days or weeks later. There are other
variations, but even slight modifications in the process can
impact the regulatory demands.
Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA)
If you are not an HMDA reporter, you can skip this section.
If you are an HMDA reporter, it is important when engaging
in a broker relationship to make it clear which party will be
making the credit decision and document that in the contract
with the investor.
For examiners, if the loan package is sent to the investor
prior to closing, then the investor is making the credit
decision, and the application must go on the investor’s LAR.
According to Appendix D of Regulation C, if the broker
makes the decision based on the investor’s underwriting
criteria, the broker reports the loan. Another way it might
play out is to assume that, prior to closing, four investors
Banknotes
receive the same application from a broker; two deny it, one
approves it, and one approves it and acquires the loan. In
this circumstance, the first two report denials, the third
reports the transaction as approved but not accepted, and
the fourth reports an origination (whether the loan closes in
the name of the broker or the investor). If the broker denies
a loan before sending it to an investor; the broker reports a
denial. So it is important to know who is making the decision
to avoid double reporting or not reporting a loan application.
Regulation X
A good faith estimate (GFE) must be provided within
three business days of the broker receiving the six pieces
of information that make up an application. The lender is
responsible for ascertaining whether the GFE has been
provided. If the broker is closing the loan in its own name
with its own funds, then the sale of the loan to the lender
is considered a true secondary market transaction and the
profit from the sale is not reflected in the GFE. If the loan is
closing in the lender’s name or is table funded by the lender
to close in the broker’s name, the money paid by the lender
to the broker is disclosed on the GFE as a negative number
in Line 2 of the GFE. The amount shown on Line 1 is equal
to the net amount charged to the consumer plus the amount
paid to the broker. Line A is the net amount charged to the
borrower. The handling of the gross and net is the same on
the HUD-1, with the gross amount shown on Line 801, the
broker fee shown as a negative number on Line 802, and the
net number on Line 803. It might seem odd, but that is the
way HUD wrote the instructions.
If the loan is not closing in the broker’s name with the
broker’s money, then the broker cannot be paid without
violating Section 8 referral fee rules unless the broker earns
+ January 2014
29
the payment. In a 1999 policy statement, HUD laid out
the minimum standards that, after taking the application, a
broker must perform at least five additional services from
this list, one of which must be a non-counseling service.
• Analyzing the borrower’s income and debt
• Educating the borrower on the home
buying and financing process
• Collecting financial information
• Ordering verifications of employment and of deposits*
• Ordering mortgage and loan verifications*
• Ordering appraisals*
• Ordering inspections or engineering reports*
• Providing various required disclosures*
• Counseling the borrower concerning credit problems
• Maintaining contact with the various parties to the process
• Ordering legal documents*
• Determining flood zone coverage*
• Participating in the loan closing*
*Non-counseling service
Parts of the list might not be useful any longer because of
changes in the loan origination process and restrictions on
appraisal orders.
Regulation Z
Fees charged by a broker, including fees paid by the consumer
directly to the broker or to the creditor for delivery to the
broker, are finance charges even if the creditor does not require
the consumer to use a broker and even if the creditor does
not retain any portion of the charge. Creditors sometimes
compensate mortgage brokers under a separate arrangement
with those parties. Creditors may draw on amounts paid by
the consumer, such as points or closing costs, to fund their
payment to the broker. Compensation paid by a creditor to
a broker under an agreement is not included as a separate
component of a consumer’s total finance charge, although
this compensation may be reflected in the finance charge if it
comes from amounts paid by the consumer to the creditor that
are finance charges.
When a loan closes in an investor’s name or is table funded by
the investor, the investor is the creditor, and the broker is an
originator. The amount paid to the broker cannot vary based on
the terms and conditions of the loan. When the loan closes in
the originator’s name with the originator’s money, the originator
and the creditor are the same entity, and the sale of the loan
to the investor is a secondary market transaction not subject to
the loan originator compensation restrictions.
There are anti-steering rules to be concerned about for
originators using multiple investors. There is a safe harbor
provision to protect against allegations of steering if the
originator obtains loan options from at least three creditors
with which the originator regularly does business and presents
the consumer with loan options that include:
• The loan with the lowest rate.
• The loan with the lowest total dollar amount for
origination points or fees and discount points.
• The loan with the lowest rate without negative
amortization, a prepayment penalty, interest-only
payments, a balloon payment in the first seven years, a
demand feature, shared equity, or shared appreciation.
It makes sense for some financial institutions to become only
brokers/originators, for some financial institutions to become
investors/creditors for other financial institutions in addition
to originating loans for which they are also the creditor, and
for some financial institutions to remain creditors/originators
and not become investors or brokers. Whichever you choose,
understand the role you are playing and who does what
in the process and ensure your compliance pieces are in
place and that it is all documented clearly for regulators. If
embarking on a new venture, contact your regulator to obtain
their position on reporting requirements and other concerns
they might have. n

Member Bank Partners in Co-Op
to Continue Offering Core System
W
aldorf Computer Systems
(WCS), of West Des
Moines,
IA,
a
corebanking system provider since 1977,
has entered into an agreement to
transition ownership of its core-banking
software product (BANCADO) to the
Community Bankers Cooperative (in
formation), a not-for-profit, memberowned and controlled cooperative.
Leonard Waldorf, president of WCS
and primary author of the software had
been evaluating various strategies to
ensure continuity for the program, and
had several offers to sell to competing
firms, but chose to work with the user
banks to protect their interests. “If we
had chosen to sell out to a competitor,
it would have supported our banks for
maybe a few years, and then forced
them to convert to other programs,”
said Waldorf. “Many of my banks have
been with me for decades, and are
more like family than customers, so it
made perfect sense to help them form a
cooperative and have some control over
the future of their program.” Waldorf
will stay actively involved and will work
with the co-op for the next several years
to ensure a smooth transition and for
training purposes.
One of the organizers of the cooperative
is Mark Field, president and chairman
of $88 million-asset The Farmers
Bank of Liberty in Illinois. “It is
Banknotes
time for small banks to band together
and share resources in the IT arena. By
owning our own core, our co-op banks
will not be at the mercy of their vendors
when it comes to fees and upgrades,”
Field said. “It is also our hope that each
of the member banks will open up and
communicate with each other to share
tips and strategies to help one another
through the vexing issues facing the IT
area, because not every bank can afford
a full-time IT staffer. We want to create
a ‘community’ of community banks to
help keep our costs down and keep us
all competitive.”
Chuck Goodwin, president of BSIEagle Computers in Gardendale, AL,
started selling the BANCADO product
in Alabama in 1983 after a successful
career
in
the
data-processing
department of a regional bank, and
already supports several of the banks
now using the BANCADO program.
His firm will be one of the key partners
for the co-op going forward, as the firstline telephone support is transitioned
to his firm, over time, from Waldorf.
“We are looking forward to helping
more banks improve their backroom
operations, and have the tools they will
need at the front line to take excellent
care of their customers,” says Goodwin.
Goodwin also provides hardware
solutions and support to his banks.
When banks began to head toward
check imaging several years ago,
Goodwin enlisted the help of Rob
Tarte from Pacific CodeWorks in
San Francisco to provide a solution
for processing images through the
BANCADO program. Tarte’s firm
will be the other key partner for the
co-op, providing programming and
support services to keep the program
up-to-date and make new services
possible. “We have worked closely with
BANCADO for years with our imaging
suite, and now we are excited about
taking that relationship to the next
level,” explained Tarte. “We are looking
forward to enhancing BANCADO and
creating better integration with our
imaging suite so that we can move the
BANCADO community to the next
level of performance, features, and
ease of use.”
The Community Bankers Cooperative
will be governed by a board of directors
elected by the membership, who will
then work closely with the two partners
on the future direction of the program.
“The beauty of this structure is that
the banks will no longer have to worry
about whether or not their core vendor
is going to sell to the highest bidder
and leave them hanging. The member
banks, collectively, ARE the vendor.
That should make bank examiners
happy!” concluded Field. n

LEGAL LINK
Death, Taxes and
Attorney’ s Fees
Jerry Cavanaugh, CBAI General Counsel, Springfield, IL
“I’m not dead yet!”
was the protestation
from a peasant who was about to be prematurely loaded onto a
human-debris wagon in the movie Monty Python and the Holy
Grail. That quote and scene came to mind as I read the recent
First District (Cook County) Illinois Appellate Court opinion
in the case of Estate of Zagaria vs. Samuel Zagaria. Zagaria
had a $500,000 stock-brokerage account when his family lost
all contact with him in August of 2000. In July of 2009, a
court order declared him to be presumed dead and his sister
(“Sister”) was appointed to administer his estate. Sister hired
two attorneys (“Heroic Lawyers”) to assist in the handling and
eventual closing of Zagaria’s estate.
During their efforts to collect benefits for the estate on an
annuity contract, Heroic Lawyers stumbled across the fact
that someone with Zagaria’s name had given his social security
number to a homeless shelter not far from the town in which
Zagaria last resided. By December of 2009, evidence strongly
suggested that Zagaria was, in fact, not dead yet. That evidence
was confirmed in June of 2010, when Heroic Lawyers actually
met Zagaria for the first time. No doubt the best-represented
resident of the homeless shelter, Zagaria had his own attorney
(“Miser’s Lawyer”) unwind the probate estate and revoke
Sister’s authority over his financial affairs. The balance in his
brokerage account, at that time approximately $366,000, was
transferred from the estate to a new account opened for Zagaria.
Heroic attorneys came calling, politely asking the court if they
could please be paid $27,000 in fees for services rendered
while Zagaria was presumed dead. They petitioned for $27,000
to be turned over from Zagaria’s new account back to the estate
account, because the client of Heroic Lawyers had been the
estate and not Zagaria himself. Because Heroic Lawyers were
polite and their petition was very neat with no spelling errors
and no run-on or fragmented sentences, the court granted their
request and Zagaria and Miser’s Lawyer appealed.
The Appellate Court affirmed the trial court’s decision in favor
of Heroic Lawyers getting paid from the estate, even though it
38
www.cbai.com
+
meant siphoning money from the new account of the still-alive
Zagaria, because the presumption-of-death order was sufficient
under Illinois law to warrant the opening of an estate of the
presumed decedent, Sister was within her authority in hiring
Heroic Lawyers to assist with the estate, and it was uncontested
that Heroic Lawyers did, in fact, provide substantial estate
administration legal assistance to Sister.
Moral of the story: Don’t think for a second that
you can avoid paying your attorney(s) by dying.
Round Two: Attorneys Get the Short End
For those who did not like the outcome of that first story, you
might be happier to learn that, in the case of Dixon, Laukitis
& Downing, P.C. vs. Busey Bank, a law firm (“Poor, Victimized
Lawyers”) that deposited a $350,000 check into its Client
Trust account at Bank was unable to recover funds from Bank
after writing checks totaling $270,000 against that deposit,
only to find out that the fraudulent check was dishonored
and Bank charged back the $350,000 against the account of
Poor, Victimized Lawyers. Poor, Victimized Lawyers claimed
that Bank had been negligent by not observing commercially
reasonable standards when Bank allowed the $350,000
fraudulent check to be deposited and that Bank had breached
a fiduciary duty of care owed to Poor, Victimized Lawyers.
However, the Illinois Third District Appellate Court shafted
Poor, Victimized Lawyers by ruling that Bank’s duties owed
to Poor, Victimized Lawyers were limited to those found in
the Uniform Commercial Code or prescribed in the account
agreement, which stated unambiguously that any deposit was
provisional until such time as the deposited item had resulted
in collected funds. There is no common law fiduciary duty or
extraordinary duty of care beyond the account contract and the
Uniform Commercial Code that runs from a depository bank
to its depositor. n
