Unless the account agreement has a very unusual requirement that the customer has to examine checks before the statement is provided on which they are shown to have been paid (and it's been tried and tested in the courts), the bank is responsible to the customer for paying those items, which were not properly payable.
In most cases, you won't have any recourse against a depositary bank for those items, either.
