A. Subject to subsection B of this section, creditor process with respect to a special deposit is not enforceable against the bank holding the special deposit.
B. Creditor process is enforceable against a bank Holding a special deposit with respect to an amount the bank is obligated to pay a beneficiary or a depositor if the process:
1. Is served on the bank;
2. Provides sufficient information to permit the bank to identify the depositor or the beneficiary from the bank's books and records; and
3. Gives the bank a reasonable opportunity to act on the process.
C. Creditor process served on a bank before it is enforceable against the bank under subsection B of this section does not create a right of the creditor against the bank or a duty of the bank to the creditor. Other law determines whether creditor process creates a lien enforceable against the beneficiary on a contingent interest of a beneficiary, including a depositor as a beneficiary, even if not enforceable against the bank.
