(1) A bank may charge against the account of a customer an item that is properly payable from that account even though the charge creates an overdraft. An item is properly payable if it is authorized by the customer and is in accordance with any agreement between the customer and bank.
(2) A customer is not liable for the amount of an overdraft if the customer neither signed the item nor benefits from the proceeds of the item.
(3) A bank may charge against the account of a customer a check that is otherwise properly payable from the account, even though payment was made before the date of the check, unless the customer has given notice to the bank of the postdating describing the check with reasonable certainty.

(1) Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, a payor bank wrongfully dishonors an item if it dishonors an item that is properly payable. However, a bank may dishonor an item that would create an overdraft unless it has agreed to pay the overdraft.
(2) A payor bank is liable to its customer for damages proximately caused by the wrongful dishonor of an item. Liability is limited to actual damages proved and may include damages for an arrest or prosecution of the customer or other consequential damages. Whether any consequential damages are proximately caused by the wrongful dishonor is a question of fact to be determined in each case.
(3) A payor bank’s determination of the customer’s account balance on which a decision to dishonor for insufficiency of available funds is based may be made at a time between the time the item is received by the payor bank and the time that the payor bank returns the item or gives notice in lieu of return, and no more than one determination need be made. If, at the election of the payor bank, a subsequent balance determination is made for the purpose of reevaluating the bank’s decision to dishonor the item, the account balance at that time is determinative of whether a dishonor for insufficiency of availability funds is wrongful.

2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 074 - Bank Deposits and Collections › Section 74.4030 - Customer’s right to stop payment; duration of stop payment order; burden of proof of loss.

(1) A customer or any person authorized to draw on the account if there is more than one person may stop payment of any item drawn on the customer’s account or close the account by an order to the bank describing the item or account with reasonable certainty received at a time and in a manner that affords the bank a reasonable opportunity to act on it before any action by the bank with respect to the item described in ORS 74.3030. If the signature of more than one person is required to draw on an account, any of these persons may stop payment or close the account.
(2) A stop payment order is effective for six months, but it lapses after 14 calendar days if the original order was oral and was not confirmed in writing within that period. A stop payment order may be renewed for additional six-month periods by a writing given to the bank within a period during which the stop payment order is effective.
(3) The burden of establishing the fact and amount of loss resulting from the payment of an item contrary to a stop payment order or order to close an account is on the customer. The loss from payment of an item contrary to a stop payment order may include damages for dishonor of subsequent items under ORS 74.4020. [1961 c.726 §74.4030; 1993 c.545 §106]

(1) A payor or collecting bank’s authority to accept, pay or collect an item or to account for proceeds of its collection, if otherwise effective, is not rendered ineffective by incompetence 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 incompetence. Neither death nor incompetence 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 incompetence and has reasonable opportunity to act on it.
(2) Even with knowledge, a bank may for 10 days after the date of death pay or certify checks drawn on or before that date unless ordered to stop payment by a person claiming an interest in the account. [1961 c.726 §74.4050; 1993 c.545 §107]

(1) Of any holder in due course on the item against the drawer or maker; and
(2) Of the payee or any other holder of the item against the drawer or maker either on the item or under the transaction out of which the item arose; and

2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 074 - Bank Deposits and Collections › Section 74.5020 - Presentment of "on arrival" drafts.

If a draft or the relevant instructions require presentment "on arrival," "when goods arrive" or the like, the collecting bank need not present until in its judgment a reasonable time for arrival of the goods has expired. Refusal to pay or accept because the goods have not arrived is not dishonor; the bank must notify its transferor of the refusal but need not present the draft again until it is instructed to do so or learns of the arrival of the goods. [1961 c.726 §74.5020; 1993 c.545 §111]

However, the presenting bank is under no obligation with respect to goods represented by the documents except to follow any reasonable instructions seasonably received; it has a right to reimbursement for any expense incurred in following instructions and to prepayment of or indemnity for those expenses.

2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 074A - Funds Transfers › Section 74A.1060 - Time payment order is received.

(1) The time of receipt of a payment order or communication canceling or amending a payment order is determined by the rules applicable to receipt of a notice stated in ORS 71.2020. A receiving bank may fix a cutoff time or times on a funds-transfer business day for the receipt and processing of payment orders and communications canceling or amending payment orders. Different cutoff times may apply to payment orders, cancellations or amendments, or to different categories of payment orders, cancellations or amendments. A cutoff time may apply to senders generally or different cutoff times may apply to different senders or categories of payment orders. If a payment order or communication canceling or amending a payment order is received after the close of a funds-transfer business day or after the appropriate cutoff time on a funds-transfer business day, the receiving bank may treat the payment order or communication as received at the opening of the next funds-transfer business day.
(2) If this chapter refers to an execution date or payment date or state a day on which a receiving bank is required to take action, and the date or day does not fall on a funds-transfer business day, the next day that is a funds-transfer business day is treated as the date or day stated, unless the contrary is stated in this chapter.

2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 074A - Funds Transfers › Section 74A.1080 - Exclusion of consumer transactions covered by federal law; remittance transfers.

(1) Except as provided in subsection (2) of this section, this chapter does not apply to a funds transfer any part of which is governed by the Electronic Fund Transfer Act of 1978 (Title XX, P.L. 95.630, 92 Stat. 3728, 15 U.S.C. 1693 et seq.).
(2) This chapter applies to a funds transfer that is a remittance transfer, as defined in 15 U.S.C. 1693o-1, unless the remittance transfer is an electronic fund transfer, as defined in 15 U.S.C. 1693a.

2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 074A - Funds Transfers › Section 74A.2010 - Security procedure.

(1) "Security procedure" means a procedure established by agreement of a customer and a receiving bank for the purpose of:
(a) Verifying that a payment order or communication amending or canceling a payment order is that of the customer; or
(b) Detecting error in the transmission or the content of the payment order or communication.
(2) A security procedure may require the use of algorithms or other codes, identifying words or numbers, encryption, callback procedures or similar security devices. Comparison of a signature on a payment order or communication with an authorized specimen signature of the customer is not by itself a security procedure. [1991 c.442 §9]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 074A - Funds Transfers › Section 74A.2020 - Authorized and verified payment orders.

(1) A payment order received by the receiving bank is the authorized order of the person identified as sender if that person authorized the order or is otherwise bound by it under the law of agency.
(2) If a bank and its customer have agreed that the authenticity of payment orders issued to the bank in the name of the customer as sender will be verified pursuant to a security procedure, a payment order received by the receiving bank is effective as the order of the customer, whether or not authorized, if:
(a) The security procedure is a commercially reasonable method of providing security against unauthorized payment orders; and
(b) The bank proves that it accepted the payment order in good faith and in compliance with the security procedure and any written agreement or instruction of the customer restricting acceptance of payment orders issued in the name of the customer.
(3) The bank is not required to follow an instruction that violates a written agreement with the customer or notice of which is not received at a time and in a manner affording the bank a reasonable opportunity to act on it before the payment order is accepted.
(4) Commercial reasonableness of a security procedure is a question of law to be determined by considering the wishes of the customer expressed to the bank, the circumstances of the customer known to the bank, including the size, type and frequency of payment orders normally issued by the customer to the bank, alternative security procedures offered to the customer, and security procedures in general use by customers and receiving banks similarly situated. A security procedure is deemed to be commercially reasonable if:
(a) The security procedure was chosen by the customer after the bank offered, and the customer refused, a security procedure that was commercially reasonable for that customer; and
(b) The customer expressly agreed in writing to be bound by any payment order, whether or not authorized, issued in its name and accepted by the bank in compliance with the security procedure chosen by the customer.
(5) The term "sender" in this chapter includes the customer in whose name a payment order is issued if the order is the authorized order of the customer under subsection (1) of this section, or it is effective as the order of the customer under subsection (2) of this section.
(6) This section applies to amendments and cancellations of payment orders to the same extent it applies to payment orders.
(7) Except as provided in this section and ORS 74A.2030, rights and obligations arising under this section or ORS 74A.2030 may not be varied by agreement. [1991 c.442 §10]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 074A - Funds Transfers › Section 74A.2030 - Unenforceability of certain verified payment orders.

(1) If an accepted payment order is not, under ORS 74A.2020, an authorized order of a customer identified as sender, but is effective as an order of the customer pursuant to ORS 74A.2020, the following rules apply:
(a) By express written agreement, the receiving bank may limit the extent to which it is entitled to enforce or retain payment of the payment order.
(b) The receiving bank is not entitled to enforce or retain payment of the payment order if the customer proves that the order was not caused, directly or indirectly, by a person:
(A) Entrusted at any time with duties to act for the customer with respect to payment orders or the security procedure; or
(B) Who obtained access to transmitting facilities of the customer or who obtained from a source controlled by the customer and without authority of the receiving bank, information facilitating breach of the security procedure, regardless of how the information was obtained or whether the customer was at fault.
(2) "Information" includes any access device, computer software or the like.
(3) This section applies to amendments of payment orders to the same extent it applies to payment orders. [1991 c.442 §11]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 074A - Funds Transfers › Section 74A.2040 - Refund of payment and duty of customer to report with respect to unauthorized payment order.

(1) If a receiving bank accepts a payment order issued in the name of its customer as sender which is not authorized and not effective as the order of the customer under ORS 74A.2020 or not enforceable, in whole or in part, against the customer under ORS 74A.2030, the bank shall refund any payment of the payment order received from the customer to the extent the bank is not entitled to enforce payment and shall pay interest on the refundable amount calculated from the date the bank received payment to the date of the refund. However, the customer is not entitled to interest from the bank on the amount to be refunded if the customer fails to exercise ordinary care to determine that the order was not authorized by the customer and to notify the bank of the relevant facts within a reasonable time not exceeding 90 days after the date the customer received notification from the bank that the order was accepted or that the customer’s account was debited with respect to the order. The bank is not entitled to any recovery from the customer on account of a failure by the customer to give notification as stated in this section.
(2) Reasonable time under subsection (1) of this section may be fixed by agreement as stated in ORS 71.3020 (2), but the obligation of a receiving bank to refund payment as stated in subsection (1) of this section may not otherwise be varied by agreement. [1991 c.442 §12; 2009 c.181 §48]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 074A - Funds Transfers › Section 74A.2050 - Erroneous payment orders.

(1) The rules stated in subsection (2) of this section apply if an accepted payment order was transmitted pursuant to a security procedure for the detection of error and the payment order:
(a) Erroneously instructed payment to a beneficiary not intended by the sender;
(b) Erroneously instructed payment in an amount greater than the amount intended by the sender; or
(c) Was an erroneously transmitted duplicate of a payment order previously sent by the sender.
(2)(a) If the sender proves that the sender or a person acting on behalf of the sender pursuant to ORS 74A.2060 complied with the security procedure and that the error would have been detected if the receiving bank had also complied, the sender is not obliged to pay the order to the extent stated in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this subsection.
(b) If the funds transfer is completed on the basis of an erroneous payment order described in subsection (1)(a) or (c) of this section, the sender is not obliged to pay the order and the receiving bank is entitled to recover from the beneficiary any amount paid to the beneficiary to the extent allowed by the law governing mistake and restitution.
(c) If the funds transfer is completed on the basis of a payment order described in subsection (1)(b) of this section, the sender is not obliged to pay the order to the extent the amount received by the beneficiary is greater than the amount intended by the sender. In that case, the receiving bank is entitled to recover from the beneficiary the excess amount received to the extent allowed by the law governing mistake and restitution.
(3) If the sender of an erroneous payment order described in subsection (1) of this section is not obliged to pay all or part of the order, and the sender receives notification from the receiving bank that the order was accepted by the bank or that the sender’s account was debited with respect to the order, the sender has a duty to exercise ordinary care, on the basis of information available to the sender, to discover the error with respect to the order and to advise the bank of the relevant facts within a reasonable time, not exceeding 90 days, after the bank’s notification was received by the sender. If the bank proves that the sender failed to perform that duty, the sender is liable to the bank for the loss the bank proves it incurred as a result of the failure, but the liability of the sender may not exceed the amount of the sender’s order.
(4) This section applies to amendments to payment orders to the same extent it applies to payment orders. [1991 c.442 §13]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 074A - Funds Transfers › Section 74A.2060 - Transmission of payment order through funds transfer or other communication system.

(1) If a payment order addressed to a receiving bank is transmitted to a funds-transfer system or other third-party communication system for transmittal to the bank, the system is deemed to be an agent of the sender for the purpose of transmitting the payment order to the bank. If there is a discrepancy between the terms of the payment order transmitted to the system and the terms of the payment order transmitted by the system to the bank, the terms of the payment order of the sender are those transmitted by the system. This section does not apply to a funds-transfer system of the Federal Reserve Banks.
(2) This section applies to cancellations and amendments of payment orders to the same extent it applies to payment orders. [1991 c.442 §14]
