These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[i]t is axiomatic that a banking institution and a depositor form a debtor-creditor relationship regarding those funds. The deposit of money in a financial institution creates an obligation on the part of the bank to repay the amount deposited. Thus, a debt existed from [the bank] to the Debtor by virtue of the demand account which the Debtor had opened at [the bank].”
