(c) A custodian may notify the user that a request for disclosure or to terminate an account was made under this chapter.
(d) A custodian may deny a request under this chapter from a fiduciary or designated recipient for disclosure of digital assets or to terminate an account if the custodian is aware of any lawful access to the account following the receipt of the fiduciary's request.
(e) This chapter shall not limit a custodian's ability to obtain, or require a fiduciary or designated recipient requesting disclosure or termination under this chapter to obtain, a court order that:
(1) specifies that an account belongs to the person under guardianship or the principal;
(2) specifies that there is sufficient consent from the person under guardianship or the principal to support the requested disclosure; and
(3) contains a finding required by law other than this chapter.
(f) A custodian and its officers, employees, and agents shall be immune from liability for any act or omission done in good faith compliance with this chapter. (Added 2017, No. 13, § 1.)
