Pan American Bank of Miami, 377 So.2d 213 (Fla. 3d DCA 1979); Bank of West Orange v. Associates Discount Corp., 197 So.2d 858 (Fla. 4th DCA), cert. denied, 201 So.2d 556 (Fla.1967); and (c) the knowl-. edge of appellant that the disputed funds were deposited by appellee rather than appellant's debtor, 4715 Realty Corp. v. Central Bank and Trust Co., 301 So.2d 792 (Fla. 3d DCA 1974); Central Bank and Trust Co. v. Shipman, 127 So.2d 706 (Fla. 3d DCA 1961).
