Can anyone direct me to information on how to handle a closed account (by the customers request) and subsiquent force re-open for a deposit? I believe that the only correct way to re-establish this account is to have the customer sign new documents and provide new disclosures.

You should not be forcing open an account at all. If the customer consents to reestablishing a relationship with the bank (and bank policy permits the reopening of the same account number) then new docs/disclosures would be required. Also if there is a break in the customer's relationship with the bank, they would be considered a new customer and subject to CIP requirements as well.

How about an account that was closed after it has been 'fee-d out' to a zero balance and then closed?

Best practice -- open a new account. Minimum acceptable: New account documents, use old account number if your system allows it. But if the account was closed and the customer had no other accounts open with you, this is a CIP event, and a BSA/AML violation if you don't do the CIP dance with the customer.

If an account is closed then, regardless of who closed it, it's still closed. As another has pointed out elsewhere, you do not re-open a closed account, you simply recycle the account number. It's a lousy practice whose best supporting rationale is laziness...
