Section 30-3-425 - Payment or acceptance by mistake(1) Except as provided in subsection (3), if the drawee of a draft pays or accepts the draft and the drawee acted on the mistaken belief that payment of the draft had not been stopped under 30-4-403, the signature of the purported drawer of the draft was authorized, or the balance in the drawer's account with the drawee represented available funds, the drawee may recover the amount paid for the person to whom or for whose benefit payment was made or, in the case of acceptance, may revoke the acceptance. Rights of the drawee under this subsection are not affected by failure of the drawee to exercise ordinary care in paying or accepting the draft.(2) Except as provided in subsection (3), if an instrument has been paid or accepted by mistake and the case is not covered by subsection (1), the person paying or accepting may recover the amount paid or revoke acceptance to the extent allowed by the law governing mistake and restitution.(3) The remedies provided by subsection (1) or (2) may not be asserted against a person who took the instrument in good faith and for value. This subsection does not limit remedies provided by 30-3-424 for breach of warranty.En. Sec. 143, Ch. 410, L. 1991.
