(a) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (b) of this section:

(b) A custodian is not required to accept a valid written request if:

(c) A custodian that in good faith accepts a valid written request without actual knowledge that it is void, invalid, or terminated, that the purported fiduciary's authority is void, invalid, or terminated, or that the fiduciary is exceeding or improperly exercising the fiduciary's authority may rely upon such valid written request as if it were genuine, valid and still in effect, the fiduciary's authority were genuine, valid and still in effect, and the fiduciary had not exceeded and had properly exercised the authority.

(d) For purposes of this section, a custodian that conducts activities through employees is without actual knowledge of a fact relating to a valid written request, an account holder, or a fiduciary if the employee conducting the transaction involving the valid written request is without actual knowledge of the fact.  Notification of revocation of a valid written request by an account holder or fiduciary to an officer of any custodian shall constitute actual notice to all employees.

(e) A custodian that refuses in violation of this section to accept a valid written request from a fiduciary that complies with § 5005(c) of this title is subject to:

(f) A custodian acting in good faith is immune from liability for an action done in compliance with this chapter.

(g) A custodian acting in good faith is immune from civil liability for the custodian's accidental destruction of any digital asset or digital account subject to this chapter.
