April 29, 2009, Introduced by Rep. Coulouris and referred to the Committee on Banking and Financial Services.

 

      A bill to amend 1962 PA 174, entitled

 

"Uniform commercial code,"

 

by amending sections 9515, 9516, 9520, and 9521 (MCL 440.9515,

 

440.9516, 440.9520, and 440.9521), as amended by 2008 PA 383, and

 

by adding section 9513a; and to repeal acts and parts of acts.

 

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:

 

 1        Sec. 9513a. (1) This section applies only with respect to a

 

 2  filed financing statement to which all of the following apply:

 

 3        (a) The financing statement indicates that all secured

 

 4  parties are individuals.

 

 5        (b) The financing statement identifies as a debtor an

 

 6  individual who is a public officer.

 

 7        (c) The financing statement is filed by a person who is not


 

 1  entitled to file the statement.

 

 2        (2) If a financing statement indicates that there is more

 

 3  than 1 debtor, this section applies only to each debtor who is a

 

 4  public officer.

 

 5        (3) A public officer identified as a debtor in a filed

 

 6  financing statement to which this section applies may file with

 

 7  the filing office a notarized affidavit in the form prescribed by

 

 8  the secretary of state under subsection (4), stating that the

 

 9  financing statement was filed by a person who was not entitled to

 

10  file the financing statement.

 

11        (4) The secretary of state shall adopt and, upon request,

 

12  make available to public officers a form affidavit to be used

 

13  under subsection (3) to notify a filing office of the filing of a

 

14  financing statement by a person who was not entitled to file the

 

15  financing statement.

 

16        (5) If an affidavit is filed under subsection (3), the

 

17  filing office shall file a termination statement with respect to

 

18  the financing statement indicating that the termination was made

 

19  under this section.

 

20        (6) A fee shall not be charged for filing an affidavit under

 

21  subsection (3) or a termination statement under subsection (5).

 

22  The filing office shall not return any fee paid for filing the

 

23  financing statement, regardless of whether the financing

 

24  statement is reinstated under subsection (9).

 

25        (7) A filing office that terminates a financing statement

 

26  under subsection (5) shall on the same day send, by certified

 

27  mail, return receipt requested, a notice of termination to the


 

 1  individual identified as the secured party in the financing

 

 2  statement, at the address provided for the individual in the

 

 3  financing statement, advising the individual of the termination.

 

 4  If the individual believes in good faith that the individual was

 

 5  entitled to file the financing statement, the individual may file

 

 6  an action to reinstate the financing statement.

 

 7        (8) The exclusive venue for an action under subsection (7)

 

 8  to reinstate a financing statement shall be either of the

 

 9  following:

 

10        (a) If the public officer who filed the affidavit under

 

11  subsection (3) is an employee of this state, in the Ingham county

 

12  circuit court.

 

13        (b) If subdivision (a) does not apply, in the circuit court

 

14  for the county in this state in which the public officer who

 

15  filed the affidavit under subsection (3) resides.

 

16        (9) If the court in an action to reinstate a financing

 

17  statement under this section determines that the financing

 

18  statement should be reinstated, the court shall provide a copy of

 

19  its order to the filing office. On receipt of an order

 

20  reinstating a financing statement, a filing office shall file a

 

21  record that identifies by its file number the initial financing

 

22  statement to which the record relates and indicates that the

 

23  financing statement has been reinstated.

 

24        (10) On the filing of a record reinstating a financing

 

25  statement under subsection (9), the effectiveness of the

 

26  financing statement is retroactively reinstated and shall be

 

27  considered never to have been ineffective as against all persons


 

 1  and for all purposes except as against a good faith purchaser of

 

 2  the collateral for value. If a financing statement that is

 

 3  reinstated would have lapsed during the period between

 

 4  termination and reinstatement, the

 

 5  secured party may file a continuation statement not later than 30

 

 6  days after the record reinstating the financing statement is

 

 7  filed, in which event the effectiveness of the financing

 

 8  statement continues for 5 years after the day on which the

 

 9  financing statement would have lapsed if a termination statement

 

10  had not been filed.

 

11        (11) If the court in an action to reinstate a financing

 

12  statement under this section determines that the individual who

 

13  filed the financing statement was not entitled to file the

 

14  financing statement, the individual shall pay the costs and

 

15  expenses, including legal fees, incurred by the public officer in

 

16  the action.

 

17        (12) An individual who knowingly files a false affidavit

 

18  under subsection (3) is guilty of a felony punishable by

 

19  imprisonment for not more than 5 years or a fine of not more than

 

20  $2,500.00, or both.

 

21        (13) As used in this section, "public officer" means an

 

22  individual who is, on or before the date on which the financing

 

23  statement is filed, an elected or appointed official or an

 

24  employee of this state, of a local unit of government in this

 

25  state, including a county, township, city, village, court, or

 

26  other public authority, or of the government of the United

 

27  States.


 

 1        Sec. 9515. (1) Except as otherwise provided in subsections

 

 2  (2), (5), (6), and (7), a filed financing statement is effective

 

 3  for a period of 5 years after the date of filing.

 

 4        (2) Except as otherwise provided in subsections (5), (6),

 

 5  and (7), an initial financing statement filed in connection with

 

 6  a manufactured-home transaction is effective for a period of 30

 

 7  years after the date of filing if it indicates that it is filed

 

 8  in connection with a manufactured-home transaction.

 

 9        (3) The effectiveness of a filed financing statement lapses

 

10  on the expiration of the period of its effectiveness unless

 

11  before the lapse a continuation statement is filed pursuant to

 

12  subsection (4). Upon lapse, a financing statement ceases to be

 

13  effective and any security interest or agricultural lien that was

 

14  perfected by the financing statement becomes unperfected, unless

 

15  the security interest is perfected otherwise. If the security

 

16  interest or agricultural lien becomes unperfected upon lapse, it

 

17  is deemed never to have been perfected as against a purchaser of

 

18  the collateral for value.

 

19        (4) A continuation statement may be filed only within 6

 

20  months before the expiration of the 5-year period specified in

 

21  subsection (1) or the 30-year period specified in subsection (2),

 

22  whichever is applicable.

 

23        (5) Except as otherwise provided in section 9510, upon

 

24  timely filing of a continuation statement, the effectiveness of

 

25  the initial financing statement continues for a period of 5 years

 

26  commencing on the day on which the financing statement would have

 

27  become ineffective in the absence of the filing. Upon the


 

 1  expiration of the 5-year period, the financing statement lapses

 

 2  in the same manner as provided in subsection (3), unless, before

 

 3  the lapse, another continuation statement is filed pursuant to

 

 4  subsection (4). Succeeding continuation statements may be filed

 

 5  in the same manner to continue the effectiveness of the initial

 

 6  financing statement.

 

 7        (6) If a debtor is an organization identified as a

 

 8  transmitting utility and a filed initial financing statement so

 

 9  indicates, the financing statement is effective until a

 

10  termination statement is filed. A financing statement that is

 

11  filed before the effective date of the amendatory act that added

 

12  this sentence is effective for a period of 5 years after the date

 

13  of filing and shall not be continued under this section if the

 

14  financing statement indicates either of the following:

 

15        (a) That the debtor is an individual purporting to be a

 

16  transmitting utility.

 

17        (b) That the debtor is an individual showing his or her name

 

18  as an organization and purporting to be a transmitting utility.

 

19        (7) A record of a mortgage that is effective as a financing

 

20  statement filed as a fixture filing under section 9502(3) remains

 

21  effective as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing

 

22  until the mortgage is released or satisfied of record or its

 

23  effectiveness otherwise terminates as to the real property.

 

24        Sec. 9516. (1) Except as otherwise provided in subsection

 

25  (2), communication of a record to a filing office and tender of

 

26  the filing fee or acceptance of the record by the filing office

 

27  constitutes filing.


 

 1        (2) Filing does not occur with respect to a record that a

 

 2  filing office refuses to accept because of 1 or more of the

 

 3  following:

 

 4        (a) The record is not communicated by a method or medium of

 

 5  communication authorized by the filing office.

 

 6        (b) An amount equal to or greater than the applicable filing

 

 7  fee is not tendered.

 

 8        (c) The filing office is unable to index the record because

 

 9  of 1 or more of the following:

 

10        (i) In the case of an initial financing statement, the record

 

11  does not provide a name for the debtor.

 

12        (ii) In the case of an amendment or correction statement, the

 

13  record does not identify the initial financing statement as

 

14  required by section 9512 or 9518, as applicable, or identifies an

 

15  initial financing statement whose effectiveness has lapsed under

 

16  section 9515.

 

17        (iii) In the case of an initial financing statement that

 

18  provides the name of a debtor identified as an individual or an

 

19  amendment that provides a name of a debtor identified as an

 

20  individual that was not previously provided in the financing

 

21  statement to which the record relates, the record does not

 

22  identify the debtor's last name.

 

23        (iv) In the case of a record filed or recorded in the filing

 

24  office described in section 9501(1)(a), the record does not

 

25  provide a sufficient description of the real property to which it

 

26  relates.

 

27        (d) In the case of an initial financing statement or an


 

 1  amendment that adds a secured party of record, the record does

 

 2  not provide a name and mailing address for the secured party of

 

 3  record.

 

 4        (e) In the case of an initial financing statement or an

 

 5  amendment that provides a name of a debtor which was not

 

 6  previously provided in the financing statement to which the

 

 7  amendment relates, the record does not provide or indicate 1 or

 

 8  more of the following:

 

 9        (i) Provide a mailing address for the debtor.

 

10        (ii) Indicate whether the debtor is an individual or an

 

11  organization.

 

12        (iii) If the financing statement indicates that the debtor is

 

13  an organization, provide 1 or more of the following:

 

14        (A) A type of organization for the debtor.

 

15        (B) A jurisdiction of organization for the debtor.

 

16        (C) An organizational identification number for the debtor

 

17  or indicate that the debtor has none.

 

18        (f) In the case of an assignment reflected in an initial

 

19  financing statement under section 9514(1) or an amendment filed

 

20  under section 9514(2), the record does not provide a name and

 

21  mailing address for the assignee.

 

22        (g) In the case of a continuation statement, the record is

 

23  not filed within the 6-month period prescribed by section

 

24  9515(4).

 

25        (3) For purposes of subsection (2), both of the following

 

26  apply:

 

27        (a) A record does not provide information if the filing


 

 1  office is unable to read or decipher the information.

 

 2        (b) A record that does not indicate that it is an amendment

 

 3  or identify an initial financing statement to which it relates,

 

 4  as required by section 9512, 9514, or 9518, is an initial

 

 5  financing statement.

 

 6        (4) A record that is communicated to the filing office with

 

 7  tender of the filing fee, but which the filing office refuses to

 

 8  accept for a reason other than one set forth in subsection (2),

 

 9  or section 9520(5), is effective as a filed record except as

 

10  against a purchaser of the collateral which gives value in

 

11  reasonable reliance upon the absence of the record from the

 

12  files.

 

13        Sec. 9520. (1) A filing office shall refuse to accept a

 

14  record for filing for a reason set forth in section 9516(2) or,

 

15  if the filing office is the secretary of state, subsection (5)

 

16  and may refuse to accept a record for filing only for a reason

 

17  set forth in section 9516(2). or, if the filing office is the

 

18  secretary of state, subsection (5).

 

19        (2) If a filing office refuses to accept a record for

 

20  filing, it shall communicate to the person that presented the

 

21  record the fact of and reason for the refusal and the date and

 

22  time the record would have been filed had the filing office

 

23  accepted it. The communication must be made at the time and in

 

24  the manner prescribed by filing-office rule but, in the case of a

 

25  filing office described in section 9501(1)(b), in no event more

 

26  than 2 business days after the filing office receives the record.

 

27        (3) A filed financing statement satisfying section 9502(1)


 

 1  and (2) is effective, even if the filing office is required to

 

 2  refuse to accept it for filing under subsection (1). However,

 

 3  section 9338 applies to a filed financing statement providing

 

 4  information described in section 9516(2)(e) that is incorrect at

 

 5  the time the financing statement is filed.

 

 6        (4) If a record communicated to a filing office provides

 

 7  information that relates to more than 1 debtor, this part applies

 

 8  as to each debtor separately.

 

 9        (5) Notwithstanding any other provision of this act, if a

 

10  person presents a record to the secretary of state for filing or

 

11  recording, the secretary of state may refuse to accept the record

 

12  for filing or recording if 1 or more of the following

 

13  circumstances exist:

 

14        (a) The record is not required or authorized to be filed or

 

15  recorded with the secretary of state.

 

16        (b) The record is being filed or recorded for a purpose

 

17  outside the scope of this article.

 

18        (c) The secretary of state has reasonable cause to believe

 

19  the record is materially false or fraudulent.

 

20        (d) The record asserts a claim against a current or former

 

21  employee or officer of a federal, state, county, or other local

 

22  governmental unit that relates to the performance of the

 

23  officer's or employee's public duties, and for which the filer

 

24  does not hold a properly executed security agreement or judgment

 

25  from a court of competent jurisdiction.

 

26        (e) The record indicates that the debtor and the secured

 

27  party are substantially the same or that an individual debtor is


 

 1  a transmitting utility.

 

 2        (6) If a correction statement filed with the secretary of

 

 3  state under section 9518 alleges that a previously filed record

 

 4  was wrongfully filed, the secretary of state shall, without undue

 

 5  delay, determine whether the contested record was wrongfully

 

 6  filed. To determine whether the record was wrongfully filed, the

 

 7  secretary of state may require the person who filed the

 

 8  correction statement or the secured party to provide any

 

 9  additional relevant information requested by the secretary of

 

10  state, including an original or copy of a security agreement that

 

11  is related to the record. If the secretary of state finds that

 

12  the record was wrongfully filed, the secretary of state shall

 

13  terminate the record and the record is void and ineffective. The

 

14  secretary of state shall notify the secured party named in the

 

15  contested record of the termination.

 

16        (7) If the secretary of state refuses to accept a record for

 

17  filing or recording pursuant to subsection (5), the person who

 

18  presented the record to the secretary of state may commence an

 

19  action under section 9501a to require the secretary of state to

 

20  accept the record for filing or recording. A record ordered by

 

21  the court to be accepted is effective as a filed record from the

 

22  initial filing date except as against a purchaser of the

 

23  collateral which gives value in reasonable reliance on the

 

24  absence of the record from the files.

 

25        (8) A filing officer who, acting in a manner that does not

 

26  subject the filing officer to personal liability under the

 

27  statutes of this state, improperly refuses to accept a record for


 

 1  filing or recording under subsection (5) is not personally liable

 

 2  for the improper refusal or determination.

 

 3        (9) Subsection (5) does not apply to a financing statement

 

 4  filed by a regulated financial institution or a representative of

 

 5  a regulated financial institution. If a regulated financial

 

 6  institution that is attempting to file a financing statement is

 

 7  organized under the law of a governmental unit other than this

 

 8  state, the secretary of state may request the regulated financial

 

 9  institution or its representative to provide verification of

 

10  regulation or licensure in the jurisdiction under whose law the

 

11  institution is organized. As used in this subsection, "regulated

 

12  financial institution" means that term as defined in section

 

13  9501a.

 

14        Sec. 9521. (1) A filing office that accepts written records

 

15  for filing shall not refuse to accept a written initial financing

 

16  statement that conforms to the current format prescribed by the

 

17  national conference of commissioners on uniform state laws in the

 

18  following form, except for a reason set forth in section 9516(2):

 

19  or 9520(5).
