Excused presentment and notice of dishonor.

(b) Notice of dishonor is excused if (i) by the terms of the instrument notice of dishonor is not necessary to enforce the obligation of a party to pay the instrument, or (ii) the party whose obligation is being enforced waived notice of dishonor. A waiver of presentment is also a waiver of notice of dishonor. (c) Delay in giving notice of dishonor is excused if the delay was caused by circumstances beyond the control of the person giving the notice and the person giving the notice exercised reasonable diligence after the cause of the delay ceased to operate. See Secs. 42a-3-111 and 42a-3-501(a) and (b)(1) for successor provisions to Sec. 42a-3-504, revised to 1991, re manner of presentment. Cited. 32 CS 175.
