AI Summary

This bill clarifies that if a financial institution reasonably believes a customer is deceased, it is not required to confirm that a subpoena, which is a legal order demanding documents or testimony, has been served on the deceased customer, their estate, or their heirs. The bill also modifies how financial records are delivered when requested by a subpoena, allowing for electronic submission or other agreed-upon methods if the subpoena doesn't specify, and if no agreement can be reached, the financial institution can choose to deliver them physically, by mail, or through a delivery service. Furthermore, it mandates that the recipient of these records must keep them secure and confidential, only disclosing them to individuals or entities legally permitted to view them in relation to the proceeding for which the subpoena was issued.
