Indiana § 26-1-9.1-520

• Jurisdiction: Indiana
• Title 26: COMMERCIAL LAW
• Art. 1: UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE
• Ch. 9.1: Secured Transactions

Text

(a) A filing office shall refuse to accept
a record for filing for a reason set forth in IC 26-1-9.1-516(b) and may
refuse to accept a record for filing only for a reason set forth in IC 26-1-9.1-516(b).
(b) If a filing office refuses to accept a record for filing, it shall
communicate to the person that presented the record the fact of and
reason for the refusal and the date and time the record would have been
filed had the filing office accepted it. The communication must be
made at the time and in the manner prescribed by filing-office rule, but
in the case of a filing office described in IC 26-1-9.1-501(a)(2), in no
event more than two (2) business days after the filing office receives
the record.
(c) A filed financing statement satisfying IC 26-1-9.1-502(a) and IC 26-1-9.1-502(b) is effective, even if the filing office is required to
refuse to accept it for filing under subsection (a). However, IC 26-1-9.1-338 applies to a filed financing statement providing
information described in IC 26-1-9.1-516(b)(5) that is incorrect at the
time the financing statement is filed.
(d) If a record communicated to a filing office provides information
that relates to more than one (1) debtor, IC 26-1-9.1-501 through IC 26-1-9.1-527 apply as to each debtor separately.
