    In March 1987, Erb personally accepted from Matthews a check drawn by Utah Softcopy and payable to the order of “APB Investments.” The amount of the check was $460,150.23. At that time, there was no ABP Investment account opened at Shearson, although the Wordperfect principals maintained accounts elsewhere in that name. Notwithstanding the absence of an account in the name of the payee, Erb accepted the check for deposit at Shearson. Matthews suggested that a substitute check be correctly drawn and submitted for deposit from Shearson. Erb responded by assuring Matthews that he would personally guarantee that the check was credited to the appropriate account. However, rather than depositing the check into on of the authorized Wordperfect accounts, Erb opened a new account at Shearson in the name of ABP investments. Erb apparently forged the signature of Bruce Bastian on the new account documents. No evidence in the record suggests that Bastian or any other Wordperfect or Utah Softcopy representative authorized or subsequently ratified the creation of the new account. Erb listed as the address of records for the ABP Investment account a post office box number in Orem, Utah, which was unknown to Wordperfect and its principals and was different from the record address for the other there Wordperfect accounts. Erb would obtain the check and indorse them in the name of ABP Investments. He took the check to Wasatch Bank for deposit into his personal account for which Wasatch accepted the deposit. Shearson brought suit against Wasatch. Wasatch move for summary of judgment, claiming under the “fictitious payee” rule that is was not liable.…
