Colorado Code
Part 5 - Dishonor
§ 4-3-501. Presentment







Source: L. 94: Entire article R&RE, p. 873, § 1, effective January 1, 1995.
Editor's note: This section is similar to former §§ 4-3-501, 4-3-503, and 4-3-504 as they existed prior to 1994.
Subsection (a) defines presentment. Subsection (b)(1) states the place and manner of presentment. Electronic presentment is authorized. The communication of the demand for payment or acceptance is effective when received. Subsection (b)(2) restates former Section 3-505. Subsection (b)(2)(i) allows the person to whom presentment is made to require exhibition of the instrument, unless the parties have agreed otherwise as in an electronic presentment agreement. Former Section 3-507(3) is the antecedent of subsection (b)(3)(i). Since a payor must decide whether to pay or accept on the day of presentment, subsection (b)(4) allows the payor to set a cut-off hour for receipt of instruments presented.
