An adverse claim to the contents of a safe deposit box, or to property held in safekeeping, is not sufficient to require the lessor to deny access to its lessee unless:\n(1) the lessor is directed to do so by a court order issued in an action in which the lessee is served with process and named as a party by a name which identifies him with the name in which the safe deposit box is leased or the property held; or\n(2) the safe deposit box is leased or the property is held in the name of a lessee with the addition of words indicating that the contents or property are held in a fiduciary capacity, and the adverse claim is supported by an affidavit stating facts disclosing that it is made by or on behalf of a beneficiary and that there is a reason to believe that the fiduciary may misappropriate the trust property.\nB. A claim is also adverse where one of several lessees claims, contrary to the terms of the lease, an exclusive right of access, or where one or more persons claim a right of access as agents or officers of a lessee to the exclusion of others as agents or officers, or where it is claimed that a lessee is the same person as one using another name.","path":["Chapter 58 - Financial Institutions and Regulations","ARTICLE 1 Banking Generally"],"source_url":"https://nmonesource.com/nmos/nmsa-unanno/en/item/18561/index.do","current_through":"2025-01-07","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-09-03T15:02:20Z","sha256":"e7940b83a56f448cb6647e1de41e01295b9680df119980069fcdd2a5094b1fdf","source_id":"us-nm","stale":false,"prev":"us-nm/58-1-14","next":"us-nm/58-1-16"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
