Miss. Code Ann. § 75-8-206

Completion or alteration of security certificate

Known as the Uniform Commercial Code

The act spans §§ 75–75 (480 sections).

Laws, 1996, ch. 486, § 23, eff from and after July 1, 1996.

If a security certificate contains the signatures necessary to its issue or transfer but is incomplete in any other respect:

(1) Any person may complete it by filling in the blanks as authorized; and

(2) Even if the blanks are incorrectly filled in, the security certificate as completed is enforceable by a purchaser who took it for value and without notice of the incorrectness.

A complete security certificate that has been improperly altered, even if fraudulently, remains enforceable, but only according to its original terms.
