(1) As used in ORS 711.515 to 711.525, “depositor” includes purchasers or holders in due course of certificates of deposit, cashiers’ checks, certified checks, outstanding unpaid drafts drawn or issued by an Oregon stock bank, unsecured letters of credit and unsecured drafts accepted by the Oregon stock bank if the instruments enumerated are issued pursuant to cash or credit actually received or realized by the Oregon stock bank.
(2) A depositor or deposit, including deposits of the State of Oregon or any county, city or political subdivision thereof, shall not have a preference or prior lien on any assets of an insolvent Oregon stock bank over the claims of other depositors or deposits, unless the assets have been pledged as security in compliance with the provisions of law. This subsection does not apply to any claims or demands involving funds held by an Oregon stock bank under an express oral or written trust agreement, where a preference to the trust funds may be established by evidence satisfactory to the Director of the Department of Consumer and Business Services and the supervising court. [Amended by 1973 c.797 §269; 1997 c.631 §249]
