Legal Question in Banking Law in California
My mother passed away in California. The joint bank account she had with her husband (located in CA) is still in place. She has checks that come to her regularly in the mail made out to her only. Is it possible for the joint account holder to deposit checks made out to her without a signature? Can the checks be deposited with only the account number written on the back? If a signature is needed and it is forged, who is liable if there is a dispute?
