HRS §490:9-332
When you can keep money or funds despite a security interest
This section says that if you receive physical money, funds from a bank account, or electronic money, you take it free of any security interest, as long as you did not work with the debtor to violate the secured party's rights. In simple terms, you get to keep the money if you were not part of a scheme to cheat the lender.
