In Indiana, when one person dies, their share of the joint checking account typically passes to the surviving account holder.

A Co-owner on a checking account is someone who has full access to the funds. They are able to deposit and withdraw money from the account, write checks on the account and disperse them. A benefit to having a co-owner on an account is the ability for more than a single person to access the account if, god forbid, the other co-owner becomes sick or dies. A huge drawback is that the co-owner may abuse the account and legally be able to use all of the funds. If a married couple becomes separated or divorced it is encouraged they close their joint account and reopen separate ones.
If the account owner of a joint account with survivorship also has a Payable on Death (POD) designation listed for that account, the benefits of the account will be paid out in accordance with the POD designation. This means that upon the account owner's death, the funds in the account will be transferred to the individual(s) named as the POD beneficiary/beneficiaries, rather than being transferred to the co-owner(s) of the joint account with survivorship.
No. When one joint owner of an account dies the account will become the sole property of the surviving owner with no need of probate.
