§ 4205 Bank Holder And Warranty
This law says that when a customer gives an item to a bank to collect, the bank becomes the legal holder of that item and promises that the money was paid to the customer.
A person sells a used laptop to a friend and asks the friend's bank to collect the payment from the buyer.
The bank receives the laptop's payment paper. Because the seller (the customer) originally held it, the bank now holds it too. The bank also promises that the money was actually paid to the seller, so the buyer and other banks can rely on that promise.
