Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The case here, then, must be judged on its own facts, with the focus on whether potential creditors would have been misled as a result of the name the debtor was listed by in the ... financing statement. “... Perfect accuracy ... is not required as long as the financing statement contains sufficient information to “put any searcher on inquiry.” In re Excel Stores, Inc., 341 F.2d 961, 963 (2d Cir.1965). See also In re Fowler, 407 F.Supp. 799, 802 (W.D.Okla.1975). The emphasis of the Uniform Commercial Code is thus on commercial realities rather than on corporate technicalities. Siljeg v. National Bank of Commerce, 509 F.2d 1009, 1012 (9th Cir.1975). Section 9-402(5) reflects this emphasis by providing: ‘A financing statement substantially complying with the requirements of this section is effective even though it contains minor errors which are not seriously misleading.’ Fla.Stat.Ann. § 679.9-402(5) (1966). See generally In re Ham-mons, 614 F.2d 399, 405-06 (5th Cir.1980).”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“If plaintiff had searched the record, it could not reasonably have been misled, and plaintiff does not claim it searched the record and was misled. The thrust of plaintiff’s argument is that since [the creditor] did not precisely list the debt- or’s exact legal name, [the creditor] had not perfected its lien and therefore plaintiff has priority. This is an oversimplification of the UCC, and we cannot agree.”
