Any association shall have a lien, without further agreement or pledge, upon all accounts owned by any depositor to whom or on whose behalf the association has made an advance of money by loan or otherwise.
Upon the default in the repayment or satisfaction thereof, the association may, after giving ten (10) days' written notice to the depositor, cancel on its books all or any part of the accounts owned by the depositor and apply the value of the accounts in payment on account of the obligation. After the ten-day notice is given, the depositor may withdraw only the funds that are in excess of the amount of the lien.
The depositor shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice within which to object in writing to the validity of the lien. If the depositor objects within that period, the association must, within sixty (60) days after the date of receipt by the association of the objection, file a legal action to enforce the lien and shall be entitled to collect the reasonable expense of the action, including attorney fees.
An association may by written instrument waive its lien in whole or in part on any account.
Any association may accept a pledge of an account or accounts of the association owned by a depositor other than the borrower as additional security for any loan secured by an account or by real estate, or by both.
