Chapter 20. General Provisions Concerning Banks and Trust Companies
28-1-20-1.1. Statements of Account; Dormant Accounts; Service and Maintenance Charges

Sec. 1.1. (a) When a statement of account has been delivered by a bank or savings bank to a depositor, the account, after the period of three (3) years from the date of its delivery, shall be deemed finally adjusted and its correctness conclusively presumed. A statement of account or a passbook is delivered to a depositor, within the meaning of this subsection, when received by the depositor or the depositor's agent in person or when mailed to the depositor at the depositor's last known address. This section does not relieve the depositor from the duty of exercising due diligence in the examination of the statement of account. A depositor must immediately notify the bank or savings bank upon discovery of any error in the statement of account.
(b) Any bank, savings bank, or trust company may impose and collect a monthly service charge and maintenance charge on dormant accounts, in amounts that:
(1) are reasonable, as determined by resolution of the board of directors; and
(2) are properly disclosed to the bank's, savings bank's, or trust company's depositors.
(c) For the purpose of this section:
(1) a transaction account (as defined in 12 CFR 204.2(e)) is considered a dormant account after one (1) year from the date of the last transaction recorded on the books of the bank, savings bank, or trust company with respect to the account; and
(2) any other account that is not a transaction account (as defined in 12 CFR 204.2(e)) is considered a dormant account after three (3) years from the date of the last transaction recorded on the books of the bank, savings bank, or trust company with respect to the account.
(d) Any bank, savings bank, or trust company may impose and collect monthly service charges and maintenance charges on active accounts that are carried by it on its books, in such amounts as may be agreed upon between it and its depositors.
(e) This section is applicable to national banking associations doing business in this state.
