If you receive a check titled like the one below a) how should it be endorsed and b) does it need to go in a trust account?
It was explained that the trust name should be ignored like the address is, but our internal policy is to deposit a check made to a trust in a trust titled account, or have it reissued in the owner's name only. It makes sense to me to put it in a trust account since it's made out to a trust, but I need an outside opinion.

Pay to the order of:
John Doe
Jane Doe Co Ttes
John and Jane Doe Trust
DTD 1/1/01
111 1st St
New York, NY

There might be some who would argue that when payees are "stacked" in a list, you take each line on its own. That's a stretch, in my opinion, of the "ambiguously" wording in the UCC. There's nothing ambiguous in the way that check is made out -- it's payable to the trustees in their capacity as trustees, not to either of the individuals as individuals.

Strike whoever said that from your list of credible resources. The check is payable to the trust.
