Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

    Sec. 9-304. Law governing perfection and priority of security interests in deposit accounts.

    (b) Bank's jurisdiction. The following rules determine a bank's jurisdiction for purposes of this Part:
        (1) If an agreement between the bank and the debtor
    
governing the deposit account expressly provides that a particular jurisdiction is the bank's jurisdiction for purposes of this Part, this Article, or the Uniform Commercial Code, that jurisdiction is the bank's jurisdiction.
        (2) If paragraph (1) does not apply and an agreement
    
between the bank and its customer governing the deposit account expressly provides that the agreement is governed by the law of a particular jurisdiction, that jurisdiction is the bank's jurisdiction.
        (3) If neither paragraph (1) nor paragraph (2)
    
applies and an agreement between the bank and its customer governing the deposit account expressly provides that the deposit account is maintained at an office in a particular jurisdiction, that jurisdiction is the bank's jurisdiction.
        (4) If none of the preceding paragraphs applies, the
    
bank's jurisdiction is the jurisdiction in which the office identified in an account statement as the office serving the customer's account is located.
        (5) If none of the preceding paragraphs applies, the
    
bank's jurisdiction is the jurisdiction in which the chief executive office of the bank is located.
