Provision
§ 10:9-520RS 10:9-520Provision

A filing office may refuse a record only for reasons listed elsewhere, and if it does refuse, it must tell the presenter why within two business days.

§9-520. Acceptance and refusal to accept record (a) Refusal to accept record. A filing office may refuse to accept a record for filing only for a reason set forth in R.S. 10:9-516(b). (b) Notice of refusal. If a filing office refuses to accept a record for filing, it shall inform the person that presented the record the fact of and reason for the refusal within two business days after the filing office receives the record. (c) When filed financing statement effective. A filed financing statement satisfying R.S. 10:9-502(a) and (b) is effective, even if the filing office is permitted to refuse to accept it for filing under Subsection (a). However, R.S. 10:9-338 applies to a filed financing statement providing information described in R.S. 10:9-516(b)(5) which is incorrect at the time the financing statement is filed. (d) Separate application to multiple debtors. If a record communicated to a filing office provides information that relates to more than one debtor, this Part applies as to each debtor separately. Acts 2001, No. 128, §1, eff. July 1, 2001.
