Me. Stat. tit. 11 § 9-1506

Current through 131st (2023-2024) Legislature Chapter 684
Section 9-1506 - Effect of errors or omissions
(1). A financing statement substantially satisfying the requirements of this part is effective, even if it has minor errors or omissions, unless the errors or omissions make the financing statement seriously misleading.

[1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §2(NEW); 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §4(AFF).]

(2). Except as otherwise provided in subsection (3), a financing statement that fails sufficiently to provide the name of the debtor in accordance with section 9-1503, subsection (1) is seriously misleading.

[1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §2(NEW); 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §4(AFF).]

(3). If a search of the records of the filing office under the debtor's correct name, using the filing office's standard search logic, if any, would disclose a financing statement that fails sufficiently to provide the name of the debtor in accordance with section 9-1503, subsection (1), the name provided does not make the financing statement seriously misleading.

[1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §2(NEW); 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §4(AFF).]

(4). For purposes of section 9-1508, subsection (2), the "debtor's correct name" in subsection (3) means the correct name of the new debtor.

[1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §2(NEW); 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §4(AFF).]
