Cassello v. Allegiant Bank and Royal Banks of Missouri

Case URL: 

One of the issues that arises in check fraud situations is what type of cause of action can be used. In this case, the customer sued for negligence and the bank argued that the UCC preempted claims for negligence. The United State Court of Appeals for the Eight Circuit held that not all common-law actions of negligence against a bank in connection with its handling of checks are preempted by the UCC.
