• Ch. 6: Procedure

Text

5. (a) The sending of notice or a document to
a beneficiary, a trustee, or another interested person under this article
or under IC 30-2-14 must be accomplished in a manner reasonably
suitable under the circumstances and that is likely to result in receipt
of the notice or document. Permissible methods for sending notice or
a document include first class mail, personal delivery, delivery to the
person's last known place of residence or place of business, or
electronic delivery, including access to information by electronic
means, if the intended recipient has agreed to receive the electronic
delivery or to access a properly directed electronic message.
(b) An electronic message meets the requirements of this chapter if
the sender transmits the message to the intended recipient by a method
that:
(1) the sender and the recipient have previously agreed to in
writing or in a previous electronic communication; or
(2) is reasonably calculated to prevent unauthorized access to the
content of the electronic message or to nonpublic identifying or
personal information of the sender or recipient, such as encryption
of the electronic message itself or sending the recipient a link to
a password protected or encrypted web site that stores the
electronic message and any related documents.
