§ 14206. Deposits of minors; exemption from trustee process
(a) Payment. The governing body of a financial institution, in its discretion, may accept deposits from a minor and may pay to a minor such sum as is deposited to the credit of such person, and is due, as if such minor were of age. The check and receipt or acquittance of such minor shall be a full discharge for the amount for which it is given.
(b) Minor’s deposits exempt from trustee process. A financial institution shall not be chargeable as trustee on account of funds deposited to the credit of a minor, provided such funds are earned by or belong to such minor. (Added 1999, No. 153 (Adj. Sess.), § 2, eff. Jan. 1, 2001.)
