Executive Summary
Bank of America won dismissal with prejudice of a $100,000 wire-fraud lawsuit brought by non-customers. The court held that the Uniform Commercial Code preempts all common-law claims related to the wire transfer, that BANA owed no duty to non-customers, and that the plaintiff lacked standing. The ruling removes a trivial, idiosyncratic case with no financial exposure or precedent risk for a $432B bank — no market impact expected.
