When a person deposits a check in his bank (the depositary bank),the bank credits his account by the amount of the check with a provisional credit.If the depositary bank is not the payor (drawee)bank,the check passes either directly through a clearinghouse or through one or more intermediary banks until it reaches the payor/drawee bank for collection.When the check is paid,all provisional settlements become final and the transaction is completed.

The relationship between the payor bank and its checking account customer is exclusively governed by statute and leaves no room for contractual modifications.
